Hi Runners,

This Saturday, December 21st,  we will start our long run at 6:30 a.m. to run a variation of the SECOND HALF of the old 5 Points Marathon route.  We will start in front of the Performing Arts Center at UF at 6:30 a.m. and run over the 13th Street pedestrian bridge, go straight to Depot Park, we get drink there, then to Boulware Springs for 2nd drink, out Hawthorne trail however much you want, then turn and come back, hitting both drink stops as needed.   It's 11 or 12 miles.  And look forward to breakfast after!  This link is the whole marathon route, remember we do a variation of the 2nd half:     http://www.fivepointsoflife.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/2017-FPOL-Race-Weekend-Map-disclaimer.pdf
