August 8 & 9: Blue-Per Bowl & Meadow to Armstrong

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_tabs][vc_tab title=”UPDATES” tab_id=”1587233533148-2-74181-98ea”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1594128088835{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]

New York’s Mid-Hudson region has entered Phase 4 of reopening.

We will continue to maintain safe practices to prevent any potential spread of Coronavirus. I’ll bring a camera to take a group photo but you can probably stand a little closer than last week if you, and the people around you, feel comfortable.

  • Maintain social distancing before, during, and after the run
  • Run abreast where possible to keep out of each other’s slipstreams
  • Stagger start times, courses, and directions to maintain smaller groups
  • Wear masks or buffs/neck gaiters when in the parking lots and when you see others on the trail even if they don’t do the same. 

Hope to see you out there this weekend.

Meadow to Armstrong

August 9, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 am
Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Meadow Lot
Reservation Road
Pound Ridge, NY 10576 United States
+ Google Map

On Sunday, August 9, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Meadow lot ready to run the Meadow to Armstrong course. This 7-mile course starts in the reservation, then crosses over to Richard’s Preserve and Armstrong before returning back. The entire course is 7 miles but if you want to cut it short, the looped portion is about 5. And if you’re looking for something longer, well, feel free to improvise. Early birds can arrive at 6:00 or 7:00 for an extra 8 and 4 miles respectively. See the map ››

Rookie Runners arrive at 7:00 a.m. for a shorter loop at an easier pace in time to return by 8:00.

Stay On Course

The Free Avenza Maps software now has a free trail map of the Reservation available here. I’ll make .kml files available as I can so you can load them as layer overlays. Now there’s no excuse to get lost.
