June 3, A Mild Sprain

SUNDAY

This Sunday, June 3, at 9:45 a.m., meet at Sprain Ridge Park, Yonkers, for the seventh annual A Mild Sprain—the second in the Trail Mix Series of races. Race director David Vogel always makes sure this is a fun and challenging 5 mile race so plan on attending. Check-in starts at 8:30 a.m. so come early and hang out before the race. For early risers, meet at 8:00 a.m. for a course check before the race.

SATURDAY

This Saturday, June 2, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Kimberly Bridge Lot when we run a course that will take us off the reservation—literally—to Richard’s Preserve and Armstrong Preserve which abut the west side of the Reservation and offer unique views of the Cross River Reservoir. Total distance is 9 miles but you can extend the run many possible ways. I don’t have a map of the run from Kimberly Bridge but we’ll start up Blue and head toward Red/Yellow. See the map here ››
As an alternative, if you’re looking for elevation, Blue Hill Repeats will begin at 4:00 a.m. and continue until someone gives up. Just show up any time and start running.

Hope to see you out there this weekend.
