ESCKTC Group Training - Wed afternoon Ride/ Run thread (Page 2)

Jerry - We park in the lot next to Walgreens by the clock tower but we have parked at the Walgreens before and there is NO PROBLEM. Lots of mtn bikers, roadies, etc park there for Hawes trails.

Looks like I will be spearheading this this week with Josh out of town.

Not sure if I will be biking or running, but anyone is welcome to do what they want...but I'll be there. I'll post what my plans are closer to the day (thats the problem with Crossfit Endurance, I find out workouts the NIGHT before).

There is a new Pizza Fusion near here, that might be a fun place to do food depending on who is interested.

I was really looking forward to this coming Wed. group training. Unfortunately, I have parent conferences all week until 5:30. Will somebody PLEASE win the lottery and give me some money so this work stuff can stop getting in the way?

I may be able to make it on Wedsneday. It is taper week, so my training will be easy.

This Wednesday Jan 14 I will be doing a BIKE ride.

Go as easy, hard, fast, far as you like. Those of doing Changs can use this as a nice taper spin.

Meet
Meet at the clock tower by Walgreens at 4:30. (This might be able to be moved to 5:00 this week if more people can come then)

Who should I look for? Also if you want to run we can get a group together for this as well. Lots of people out of town this week, but we'll still have some people out there.

Argh I hate missing this. Stupid work.

Are you coming home with me then too?

Well now I am definitely staying home!

I think I'll make it on Wed.  Can be there by 4:30 but 5 would be better.  I'm going power walking.

I may make an appearance - even if only to wath PJ ride Sporty!

I want to come play.  I am wafling on running or riding but for sure will eat.

Can a non-ESCKTC join you?  I can make either 4:30 or 5:00.

Absolutely! EVERYONE is welcome. Will be fantastic to meet you! For reference I will be at the clock tower, I drive a silver Prius and have pink stars anda Grover on my bike!

The riders need to arrive at 4:30 since sunset is still about 5:40. If you are running you can arrive later. But for safety reasons we need all the daylight we can get.

Agreed?

Looking forward to seeing everyone!!!

Would be quite a show wouldn't it?

K. I'm in.  Planned on the trail path but didn't bring my trail shoes, so will probably do the neighborhood.

do you need directions?

I am in at 4:30ish for a jog around the block!

I'll be there!

Runners, here is a road route...wee bit hilly...but lovely. Just an option...do whatever you wish!

Good to see you all last night!  Having all the different options/routes, including Jer's newly created route, offers a little something for everyone.  Great idea.

I missed it! Who all came? What did you guys do?
