Flying B Hills Saturday

[dvmi...@windstream.net]

Hi Runners,

Congrats to our speedy marathoners:  Jess finished Pittsburgh in 3:51, and Borna finished Revel White Mountains, New Hampshire in 3:29.  Hooray!

This Saturday, May 18th, we will start our run at 6:30 a.m. at the Flying Biscuit to run our own heartbreak hilly route. This 10 or 12 mile route does hills on 23rd, then goes over I-75 to get the big hill on 39th to come back and more hills on 39th. (You can add on one more hill if you go west out 39th a bit before coming back to I75 bridge, which gives you a bit more miles too) If you run up to Hunters Crossing you can get 12 miles in, or come back down 39th/then 34th without going to HC for 10 miles. This route has hills, paved trail, roadside, and sidewalk, water stops every 2 to 3 miles, 3 have bathrooms, at 2 you could buy gatorade. The Flying B is at corner of NW 16th Avenue and NW 43rd Avenue, we park close to 43rd, On MapMyRun: 11.99 mi Flying Biscuit Heartbreak hill route http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/230811065
