group starts at 6:00pm. Meet by the large trail map. Because of the rally (see
below), we'll stagger the starts of the main group to avoid congestion with
bikers along the bottom section of the trail.

Thursday night. Please review the trail map and route descriptions. Keep the
runs short to finish by 7:00pm. Sunset is at 6:43; twilight at 7:10.

for Apex. I encourage you to arrive early to mingle with and learn about the
trail issues from the biker perspective, and to share your views from a runner
perspective. After the run, I encourage you to attend the Open Space Advisory
Comm meeting where they will be discussing the proposal.

> DTR runs are not races. We ask the faster runners to start slowly, to keep the
group together for the first 5-10 minutes. After that, we spread out and
naturally form smaller sub-groups. We ask experienced runners to wait at key
intersections to help guide newer runners.

> We usually suggest several routes of different length at each run. The
different routes are designed so that runners of different abilities can start
and finish at about the same time. Please pick the appropriate route for you.
Don't necessarily follow the people in front of you. The sub-groups/routes are
approximately defined as follows:
> Extra-Long: sub-40 10km (road race time, not the pace run at DTR runs)
> Long: low-mid 40s 10km
> Intermediate: mid 40s to low 50s 10km
> Short: mid 50s+ 10km

> Bring warm and dry clothing for after the run.

> Everyone is invited to join us for dinner after the run. We will pick a nearby
restaurant at the end of the run.
