Since the Rev3 race is postponed, I'm planning to head out on Sat or Sun morning for some training in and around the Shenandoah River State Park. I plan to leave by 0700 and be back mid-afternoon. Anyone interested in joining me?

what kind of distance/pace are you running? and I assume gravel/road riding with this rain that came through right? I might be down.

Great. Going Sunday will also allow a bit more time for the trails to dry out.

I'm out this week so that I can subject myself to running another 50k without many run miles in my legs. I blame the baby for my training...

But I've got a free night next Friday (27th) and am planning to head out to GWNF for a night session. So far I think Scott and Jesse are joining. Please join if you can. And if you have any great ideas on where we should go, I'm still thinking about the plan. Right now, I'm thinking of biking from ~Elizabeth Furnace to Woodstock Tower and back and then trekking up to Signal Knob. I'm not married to any particular plan. 

Probably starting around 8-9pm.

Here's what I'm thinking for Sunday. I'm open to any alternate suggestions.

Meet at 0800 in the parking lot on the west side of the low water bridge in Bentonville.

Ride a few loops in the park (2-3 hours).

Ride to the Veech Gap trail head, and leave our bikes there.  May want to have a lock.

Trek a circuit over Veech Gap and down Sherman Gap back to bikes (2-3 hours).

Ride back to finish at the parking lot.

Plan to be out about 6 hours. Pack like a race. Bring any maps and gear you think necessary. Weather is supposed to be nice, but a bit cooler than today. 

Recommend we break up into groups, based on speed and fitness. I plan to be in the slow group.

If anyone wants to carpool, let's meet at 0700 in the Running Store parking lot in Gainesville.

Thoughts?

I'm out, the Bakers Dozen course is open for preride. If there's anyone else who doesn't have the time to make it down and wants to ride these private trails in Leesburg hit me up, they're fun.

I'll meet everyone at Downriver at 8. I'm only running 10 after the bike then heading out to Edinburg VA to meet my sister.

I was just opening up my email to send this.... Yes!

So far, sounds like Scott and Jesse are interested. I'm pretty flexible on time and plan but what I'm thinking is to meet at 9pm. I'm game for staying out as late as anyone wants to stay. 

My general plan is to meet near Bear Wallow, bike over to Woodstock Tower, circle back to the car and then hike up to Signal Knob. I haven't checked yet to see how those distances line up and I'm completely open to other ideas. Many of you are much more familiar with the area than I am.

Hopefully more people can join for some/all of the evening. If there's a big enough group we can split into pace groups but I'm just looking to have fun in the woods and work on getting my hike-a-bike legs ready for next month.

I can do 8 as long as traffic from DC isn't too horrible. I can't get on I-66 until 6:30 unless I'm carpooling with someone.

I am shooting to be there for either start time. 8 will be traffic dependent. Will confirm tomorrow night.

Looks like a good group forming. 

We'll plan to meet at 8 at the Mudhole Gap/Bear Wallow Parking area. I think I mapped it correctly here. There's a gravel parking area directly west of a campground on Fort Valley Rd. 

If you're running late, shoot an email or text (443.306.6433) with an ETA and if we need to, we'll get in a little loop and come back for you - or me. As a reminder, phones don't work that great once on Ft. Valley. 

As Rory said last week, pack like it's a race. If you have maps, bring them. It's supposed to get a little chilly Friday night but hopefully clear skies and good stars. 

We'll start by biking to Woodstock. From there, we'll make a call on where we want to start trekking to Signal Knob.

Looking forward to it.

Gang,

There was some offline discussion regarding time but to confirm, we're still on for 8pm tomorrow or as close as we can make it. 

See you out there,

Travis

Sorry to miss you. 

It's looking more realistic that Jesse and I will arrive closer to 8:30. I'm leaving at 6:15 and it's 85 miles out there. I'll basically be ready strap on my and pack and roll.

Great training last night with Greg, Scott, Ben, Pete and Jesse. Except for the part where Pete took an unexpected bite out of a rock and then when we discovered at 6am that Jesse's car got towed from Whole Foods parking.

And now I feel no shame about drinking a beer at 8am.

Hope we can do this again as the weather continues to improve.

Awesome night. thanks for pulling it together, Travis. 

Jesse's car issue sucks. Enjoy the beer.
