Run Calendar

On Sunday, February 16, at 8:00 a.m., it’s time to get twisted. Meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Meadow Lot, when we run one of the Twisted Loops. This time we’ll the Purple loop and make sure we pass the construction of the new bridge. I'm pretty sure the bridges aren't ready to cross just […]

This Saturday, February 1, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Tusk and Cup coffee shop , 51 Ethan Allen Highway, Ridgefield CT, and prepare to run the 11 mile Brew to Brews run through Devil’s Den and Saugatuck. Options include the full 11 miles and an abbreviated 6 mile version. Since weather conditions may be, *ahem*, less […]

On Sunday, January 26, at 8:00 a.m., meet at the trail head to Lookout Point in Mountain Lakes Park (201 Hawley Road, North, Salem, NY) when we run the 10K-ish Sarah Bishop Course. Instead of starting near Hemlock Campsite where the race starts, we'll start from the trailhead to lookout point. Parking may be tight […]

On Saturday, January 25, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Kimberly Bridge Lot, when we run the Kimberly Bridge Brown/Blue loop. This 8.3 mile double looped course starts with a loop to Raven Rocks and over the Fire Tower before returning to the cars and making another northern loop on DH and […]

On Monday, January 20, at 10:00 a.m., meet at Lewisboro Town Park, Upper Lot, for a special MLK Day run. Not sure of the course but we'll head over to Kimberly Bridge and make a loop in the southern part of the park before returning the way we came. Expect 7-ish miles. Hope to see […]

On Sunday, January 19, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation ready to run the Snowy Owl Run. This course is almost the same as the Raven Rocks run but starts with a climb up FH then down the CB trail—and everyone loves a good climb at the start, right? Looks like we'll […]

On Saturday, January 18, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Trailside Museum, when we run the 7 mile Museum to Blue route. We’ll run this in a clockwise direction, opposite the arrows on the map, and running through the field to get to Kimberly Bridge. It looks like the snow will hold […]

On Sunday, January 12, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Michigan Road Lot when we run a perennial classic—the Rock Trail. We haven't been there as a group in a while so let's check out one of the Reservation’s more challenging trails and visit Dancing Rock, Indian Rock Shelter, Bear Rock Petroglyph, Castle […]

Saturday, January 11, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Westmoreland Sanctuary on Chestnut Ridge Road in Mount Kisco when we run the 5.25 mile perimeter loop. This time, we run the course in a clockwise direction (against the arrows) and return to the main lot. Those who want an extra challenge can do the Butler loop […]

On Saturday, January 4, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Meadow lot ready to run the Meadow to Armstrong course. This 7-mile course starts in the reservation, then crosses over to Richard’s Preserve and Armstrong before returning back. The entire course is 7 miles but if you want to cut it short, […]

On Saturday, January 2, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Lewisboro Town Park ready to run the Five Bridges run. The 7.5 mile version of the run passes by five of the major bridges in the park so we'll aim for that distance. The weather looks like it will be cold and wet bo dress accordingly. […]

On Wednesday, January 1, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Mountain Lakes Park, trailhead to lookout point, when we usher in the new year with Sarah Bishop. Well, not Sarah herself, but on some of the trails of the Sarah Bishop Bushwhack. And speaking of which, we'll do a little exploring while we're there. Start the […]

On Tuesday, December 31, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Michigan Road Lot, when we run the final course of the year together. After another year of calling runs, I'm going to let someone else lead this one or we can take turns calling directions at each intersection as we go (because […]

This Saturday, December 28, at 7:00 a.m, meet at Leon Levy Preserve in South Salem, parking lot entrance on Route 123 about half a mile south of Route 35. At 383 acres, this preserve is relatively small but I have a course that will get us up to 7 miles hitting most of the trails […]

On Tuesday, December 24, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Michigan Road lot, and help me remediate the Dancing Rock course marking. We'll do one last sweep of the curse, picking up flags as we go. If you missed Sunday's run, this will be the last chance you'll have to run the […]

On Sunday, December 22, at 5:00 a.m., get ready to run a very special course—The Dancing Rock Ultra. This course revives a race created by Tony Godino and Dave Cope around the time the Loop was invented but adds a whole lot more. We'll run the initial perimeter loop first, then meet up with the […]

On Saturday, December 21, at 7:00 a.m., bundle up and come run the Dancing Rockish run. This 7.5 mile run is a good preview of Sunday's Dancing Rock course but without most of the bushwhacks. As such, it's a much faster and less swampy run than what you'll have the following day. If you are […]

On Sunday, December 15, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Lewisboro Town Park, upper lot, when navigate the 9.6 mile Kessel Run. With less than a week to go before the release of the next Star Wars movie, it seems appropriate we run a special out-and-back segment that starts at Lewisboro Town Park and ends at […]

On Saturday, December 14, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Michigan Road Lot and help flag next Sunday's Run. Since there are multiple bushwhacks on this run, I'll need to lightly flag the course so that you can find your way. If you'd like to give me a hand, meet me at […]

On Sunday, December 8, at 8:00 a.m., meet at the Bennett's Pond main lot when we run a new course that a handful of you ran in September. This course takes us on a counterclockwise loop to the overlook and back. Along the way, you'll get to try out the new Ridge trail we found […]

This Saturday, December 7, at 7:00 a.m., meet at the gazebo at Leonard Park in Mt. Kisco (see map) when we tackle some different trails. We’ll start in Leonard park, go through Marsh Sanctuary, Merestead, Butler, and Westmoreland Sanctuary. Runners will have a choice of various distances from 5 to 13 miles. Print Map Download […]

This Sunday, December 1, at 8:00 a.m, meet at the Lewisboro Town Park upper parking lot (see map) when we run a perennial favorite—the Fat Ass Run. The course runs over the Bergfield bridge and returns via the Meadow and give you from 6 to 11 miles of calorie-burning fun. Anyone interested in getting an […]

On Saturday, November 30, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Trailside Museum lot, when we run a new course—Trailside to Joe 7 mile loop. Those who've run with me for a while know that once the cold temperatures set it, I'm more inclined to do some exploring in the parks. For this […]

This Friday, November 29, at 8:00 a.m, meet at the Zofnass Family Preserve on Upper Shad Road in Pound Ridge (see Google Map) when we run everyone’s favorite labyrinthian preserve with a network of trails noted for its crags and rock outcrops. Meet at the main entrance and we’ll follow a perimeter loop making all […]

On Sunday, November 24, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Kimberly Bridge lot, when we run something new—The Annunaki Bushwhack. Most of you have seen the two large annunaki paintings in the Rez but there is one more, visible from the Blue Trail, but to get a good look at it, we’ll […]

On Saturday, November 23, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Mountain Lakes Park, 201 Hawley Drive, North Salem, NY, when we run the 2019 Sarah Bishop course. Although I'll take credit for creating the course, I've never actually run it in its entirety so I'm looking forward to testing it out. Word is that the OS […]
