October 1, Lewisboro Town Park

SUNDAY

This Sunday, October 1, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Lewisboro Town Park Upper Lot when we run a new course—The Crazy 8. This 8-mile, figure-8 course will take us on the Blue trail and over the fire tower where you’ll get some practice on the Raven Rocks course. If you’re not up for the full distance, turn back at Kimberly Bridge for a respectable 4.5 mile run. Early birds can start at 5:00 a.m. or 7:00 a.m. for an 8-mile and 4-mile loop respectively. The Lewisboro Horseman’s Association will host their annual event in the Meadow starting at 9:00 a.m. so we’ll stay clear of the trails they’ll be on. Nonetheless, should you encounter a horse and rider on the trail, give them the right of way and stop until they’ve passed. See the map ››

SATURDAY

This Saturday, September 30, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Michigan Road lot and come ready to run some stairs on the Michigan to Spy Rock loop, also known as the Stairmaster. You’ll start up FH and over the Magic Stairs, then onto the Rock Trail and the “The Stairs.” Bring your own maps, though, I’m not sure I’ll be there for this one.

Thank you all for coming out for the Sarah Bishop Bushwhack last weekend and making it a success. We look forward to seeing you again next year. And don’t forget to register for the upcoming fall races:
