FLRC Group Run in Brooktondale Saturday 2/5 @ 8:30am

The next Saturday FLRC group run is this Saturday, February 5 in Brooktondale. We will meet in the parking lot of the Brooktondale Community Center at 8:30am and run at 8:45am. (This run may be a sneak peek for an event happening later on this year… :wink:)

Details: The FLRC Group Runs are held on the first and third Saturdays of each month. This is an out-and-back run, so you can’t get lost! The standard run is an hour (30 minutes out, 30 minutes back), which allows everyone to start together and end together, and it’s always great to socialize and get to know fellow runners!

You find a link to the “course” here. From the Brooktondale Community Center, we will head east on Valley Road for about a quarter of a mile, then turn right onto White Church Road. From there, we will continue until the 30 minute mark on our watches (or until you see people turning around). If you get to Ridgeway Road (about 3.25 miles in), you can continue straight on White Church Road or turn right onto Ridgeway Road.

0 voters

Everyone is welcome. This is a free activity and club membership is not required, but with the changing of the year, EVERYONE will need to sign the NEW WAIVER before your first run this year. You only need to sign the waiver once for all 2022 group runs, so if you’ve already signed it, you’re all set!

There will be post-run snacks from Brookton’s Market, so please stick around after for socializing and eating a delicious breakfast.

Unless you’re fully vaccinated (2 weeks post-second shot for Moderna/Pfizer and post-shot for J&J), please bring a mask for wearing whenever you’re not running.

If you have questions, and/or if you might be interested in volunteering as a greeter/host for these runs, contact FLRC Group Run director, Heather Cobb, at cobb.heather.m@gmail.com.

Hi Heather,

Driving conditions permitting, I’d love to join for the 2/5 Brooktondale group run! I’ll run a 10-11min pace. This will be my first run with the FLRC - looking forward to it!

Thanks,
Gillian (she/her)

Sounds great! Looking forward to meeting you. If you haven’t yet, please sign the waiver (only need to once for all 2022 group runs, not just the Saturday ones) and hopefully the weather will have cleared up for us to have a good run!

I’m also planning to attend, road conditions permitting. I’m also a ~10 min pace, and don’t typically run a full hour, so I might run/walk. Looking forward to getting out!

Looking forward to seeing you!

Unfortunately, the roads near me have yet to be plowed and I won’t be able to make it to Brooktondale. Hope it goes well! Definitely looking forward to another Saturday run! :slight_smile:
