    New York has updated its Covid-19 restrictions as of Friday, November 13. 

    Gatherings, indoors or out, are limited to no more than 10 people. As such, plan to stagger start times before and after 8:00 to maintain smaller groups and greater distance. I will not be taking a group photo at this time.

    Please remain socially distanced on the run and in the lots and wear a buff or mask when in proximity to others on or off the trail. 

    • Maintain social distancing before, during, and after the run. Limit groups to 10.
    • 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.

    Leather Raven

    November 15, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 am
    Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Meadow Lot

    On Sunday, November 15, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Meadow Lot, ready to run the ultimate in courses—the Leather Raven. While the full course is 12 miles, you have some options. You can start from the old oak tree and head in either direction. Head east and run the Loop course first. Head west and run the Raven Rocks course first. Before completing the course, take a turn onto the course you haven't completed. Not up for 12 miles? No worries. Complete either the Loop or Raven Rocks course and head home. Note: the second loop water crossing is not on the map, no one has been through the mud flats since early spring, and you have the option of taking the dry loop as marked. Cobweb crew starts at 5:00 for an additional eight miles or 7:00 for an additional four.

    Rookie runners start at 7:00 for a shorter loop and an easier pace.

    Hope to see you out there this weekend.
