July 28, Meadow Lot

SUNDAY

On Sunday, July 29, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Meadow Lot when we run a variation of Eleanor’s Escape. This classic run offers 6-mile and 8.4-mile options and includes a variety of terrain from double-wide level trails to single-track technical hills. Not shown is the option of taking the new “cliff side” RT trail when you get to it. Those looking to start early can arrive at 5:00, 6:00, or 7:00 for some of the Meadow Loops.

SATURDAY

This Saturday, July 28, at 7:00 a.m., meet at the trailhead lot to Lookout Point when we run the Mountain Lakes 15k loop. This includes perimeter trails of Mountain Lakes Park as well as Hearst-Mead and Halmi Preserves. We’ll take some of the newer trails in the northern part of the park to avoid Hunt Lane.

FRIDAY

On Friday, July 27, at 8:00 p.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation lean-to 24 ready to run. The Trailside Museum is hosting its annual Firefly Festival at our usual meeting place at Michigan Road from 6:30 to 8:30. Join in the fun there then head over to Pell Hill to lean-to 24 for a night run. We’ll head out just after 8:00 aiming to be at Michigan Road as the festival closes. As always, bring some food, maybe something to drink, and hang out by the fire afterwards. The forecast is calling for rain but I’ll still plan on running though it might dampen our post-run activities. See more info ››
