This week’s FLRC Challenge group run will introduce you to the new Lakefront Loops 5K course.
We’ll meet in the parking lot behind the Cass Park skating rink (where the Winter Chill 5Ks start) on Sunday at 8:30 AM to run the 5K course (check the course page for a Google Map pin and to get RunGo directions, which are worthwhile the first time you run it). Since the course is quite short and completely flat, some groups may want to run it again or add more miles on the roads.
After the usual milling, introductions, and recap on Challenge timing (download the Webscorer app if you haven’t already!), we’ll aim to start running the course around 8:45 AM. We’ll have some bagels and fruit for post-run snacking—make sure to vote in the pace poll so we can bring enough.
Voting in the pace poll also helps newcomers get a sense of who else will be running their pace. We always have a wide range of runners, so you’ll generally find someone to run with.

If you’re not running the Challenge, please sign the FLRC Training Programs waiver. You only need to sign once for all 2023 group runs, so if you’ve already done so, you’re all set—check here.)

If you have questions or are interested in volunteering as a greeter/host for similar group runs—you don’t need to run at the front!—contact FLRC Group Run director Heather Cobb (cobb.heather.m@gmail.com). See you Saturday!
