Subject: 16 mile run on Sunday

I'm planning on a 16 mile run on Sunday at the Suwanee greenway.  Not sure of my start time.  I will average 10-11 min/miles (century day before) and plan to do 9/1 run/walk to simulate aid stations.

Parking is at the Suwanee Sports Academy.  The greenway has a 8.4 mile loop that includes minimal concrete, wood bridges, crushed gravel and some easy trail running.  

Please let me know if you are interested and we can coordinate a start time.

Also, I'm not stuck on the location.  I WILL NOT run on the Big Creek (Alpharetta) greenway (too much concrete) and Columns seems too busy/crazy.  Kennesaw Mountain might be an option.

Is the Greenway usable at this time???? The Suwanee Creek REALLY overflowed it's banks on Tuesday morning and it was completely underwater.

Good question.  I have no idea.

Ran there twice this week and everything is fine but the "trail" portion has some standing water in places and is somewhat muddy.  Everything else is great.
