This Wednesday's morning run is at Matthews Winters. We start at
6:00am. Take I-70 to the Morrison/Golden exit, #259. Go south about
100 yards and turn right into the lot.

++++++++++

This Thursday's run is at White Ranch, lower lot (T=3-4, P=5). The
early group will meet at 5:30pm. I don't know who or if anyone has
been showing up early, so you may be on your own. This is a little
farther away, so the main group will start a little later to give
people a little more time to get there, at 6:25pm SHARP. This will be
a longer run, possibly over 1:30

This Saturday's Evergreen Runners Circle (ERC) run is at Elk Meadow,
upper lot off of Stagecoach. It starts at 8:30am sharp. Take I-70 to
Evergreen Parkway, hwy 74, exit #252. Follow hwy 74 for ~5mi to the
light at Stagecoach Blvd. You will pass Elk Meadow on the right
before you get to Stagecoach. Turn right on Stagecoach and go 1mi to
the upper lot.

The ERC runs are usually about an hour long. Sometimes a few people
will meet early or continue after the run to get in more mileage.
They usually go out for coffee/breakfast afterwards. I don't lead
these runs, so please don't ask me the questions. For more info about
the ERC schedules, go to:

Every Sunday, the Incline Club meets to run in the Pikes Peak area.
It's a large group with wide range of abilities. The runs start at
8am sharp in Manitou Springs. The runs typically are 2-3.5 hours.
They have upwards of 100 runners with a wide range of abilities. Let
me know if you are interested in joining/forming a carpool, and what
part of town you will be coming from. For more info on these runs,
including a map and detailed description of this Sunday's route, go
to www.inclineclub.com.

Looking for company on a long weekend run? Want to carpool to a
mountain race, Incline Club run or other outing? Let me know and I'll
send out the word. Please send me specific information about where
and when you want people to meet, or how to contact you. Please try
to send me the information a week in advance so I have time to get it
into my weekly message. Don't wait for me to plan everything!
