August 12, Michigan Road

SUNDAY

On Sunday, August 12, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Michigan Road Lot to run the Michigan to Kimberly Loop. This new variation includes distances of 6, 7.5 and 9 miles so if you’re looking for a longer run, you have some options. Want to add more? Arrive at 5:00, 6:00 or 7:00 ready to run some of the Michigan 8 x 4 loops.

SATURDAY

On Saturday, August 11, at 6:00 a.m., we’ll be meeting at 220 Hopewell Rd, Newtown, CT 06470, where we’ll drop cars and proceed to the start of our run which will include Devil’s Den, Saugatuck, and Aspetuck trails in Connecticut. Distance is around 18 miles. Options include dropping a car at Saugatuck reservoir for a seven mile run or at Black Rock Turnpike for 11 miles. We’re looking to include a stop at Ferris Acres Creamery at the end of the run, have some food, and maybe hit up Nod Hill for a flight of recovery hydration. Since logistics are key, try to let me know in advance if you’re interested.

NEW: TRAIL TUESDAYS

We’re going to start an ongoing run from the Meadow Lot on Tuesdays at 5:00 a.m., making one loop and returning at 6:00 for a second loop. For anyone who wants to get a run in before work, just show up ready to run. This gives you a couple options to fit a few miles in.

Hope to see you out there this weekend…or on Tuesday.

Great to run with this group last Sunday. I promise to do something about those bushwhacks before we run this again.
