Sunday: Meadow Lot
On Sunday, July 14, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Meadow Lot ready to run the 8.4 or 6 mile Eleanor’s Escape. This course includes some wide open trails where you can pick up speed, some narrow single-track that will give you a challenge, and includes two distances depending on how long you want to run. Since the bridge at intersection 2 is out, cross the stream at intersection 1 before heading east. If you’re looking to start early, Jeff is going to be starting at 4:00 a.m. I suggest running different loops on the hour from the Meadow 8×4 loop course so start on the hour whenever you can. I won’t be joining you this weekend so bring your own maps and someone…take a picture of the group. See the map ››
Saturday: Westmoreland
This Saturday, July 13, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Westmoreland Sanctuary on Chestnut Ridge Road in Mount Kisco ready to run the 5.25 mile perimeter loop. This time, run the course in a counterclockwise direction and return to the main lot. Those who want an extra challenge can do the Butler loop across the street after the run. That will add another 3+ miles at least for a total of around 8.5. I won’t be joining you so bring your own map if you’re unfamiliar with the park. I’m thinking of putting this run on an upcoming Sunday so if you do this, let me know how it goes. See the map ››
Enjoy the photo from this past run. If you have a minute, check out the Strava Flyby of the run. Interesting.
