HOH Saturday LTRs (7.25.26)
Happy Friday, HOH!
Here’s hoping you had a nice week!
We will be meeting at Green Lakes State Park for tomorrow’s long
training runs! Please plan to be in the bathroom parking lot (at the bottom
of the hill) by 7:45am! If you arrive
after 8am, the park will charge you admission.
While we cannot loop back to our cars every
3-4 miles as we typically do, the week’s route does allow a turnaround for 4
miles and an option to leave your car on the course for 6 miles (this will need
to be decided in advance). Those needing more than 8 miles can add additional
mileage after. You can find a link to tomorrow’s route along with turn-by-turn directions
below.

Canal entrance on N. Kirkville Rd.
**10 & 10+ milers can loop the
lake or finish on the canal before returning to the lot
About the Run:
- Everyone must carry enough hydration
& nutrition to sustain your entire run! - While on the canal please be mindful
of other runners, walkers, & cyclists. Always moving into single file when approaching
and announcing yourself as you pass. - Rte. 290 can get busy but has a big
shoulder and there are a few blind curves on Kinderhook and Poolsbrook. Please
be mindful of traffic; always staying on the left and moving into single file
as cars pass. Please notify fellow runners of oncoming traffic. - Your long training runs should feel easy
(almost too easy!) and conversational! If
you can’t gossip mid-run then you’re running too fast!
LOOKING AHEAD:
Tuesday (7/28):
Meet at LMS at 5:45 for speedwork
Saturday (8/1):
Meet at LMS at 8am for LTRs
Hydrate, fuel your body, hydrate
again, and I will see you tomorrow morning at Green Lakes at 7:45am with
more than enough hydration and nutrition to sustain your entire run!
Have a fabulous Friday!
Run Safe. Run Smart. Run Strong. 🩷🖤
