Sunday run - Oh My God road   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #748 of 1493 |
Join us this Sunday morning for a group run on Oh My God road.

OMG The road goes from Idaho Springs to Central City. It's a chance to
get in some good climbing and elevation without dealing with snow.

OMG is ~5.8mi & 1,800'+ up, then back. It starts at 7,500', and tops out at
9,340'. The bottom ~3/4 mi is paved. There's another ~1/2mi paved at the top.
The rest is a dirt road. It's non-technical, so you can use road shoes. You can
turn around before the top if you don't want to run that far (you can also go
longer). We'll decide as a group how long (time) we want to run so that everyone
finishes at about the same time.

OMG is the site of a race that RMRR used to put on, and that I used to
direct. Different versions of the race went 8 or 9 miles.

Meet at the Cold Spring Park-n-Ride at 8:00am. 4th and Union, in
Lakewood. Take 6th ave. to the Simms/Union exit. Go south. Take the
first left at 4th, then left into the lot.

If coming from Evergreen, we'll pick you up at the bottom of Floyd
Hill (jct of hwy 65 & I70), at 8:30am.

Run location: Start on the bridge, at 23rd ave. and Colorado Blvd., in
Idaho Springs. Take I70 W to the first Idaho Springs exit, #241a. This
lets you off onto Colorado Blvd., the main street. Continue W for
about 0.8mi to a park (grassy area) on the right, just past the
Safeway on the left. Park along the right.
