On Sunday, we’ll meet inside the front doors of Barton Hall (facing Teagle Hall, where Skunk starts) at 8:30 AM. At 8:45 AM, we’ll split up into rough pace and distance groups, take a group picture, and then run the Skunk course, more or less. Please look at the course maps below—almost everyone last week assumed someone else would know the course.
Although the Barton bathrooms will be open, I can’t guarantee that you can leave stuff inside the building during the run — I might have to re-lock the doors after we head out.

Unless there’s a big Cornell event, there’s usually plenty of free (on Sunday) parking in the Crescent Lot east of Schoellkopf Stadium or in Cornell’s parking garage.
My lungs are still recovering from a bout of COVID in January, so I will be doing a 4+ mile loop course that takes in the first 2 miles of the new Skunk Course (so going east on the Rec Way) and then loops back via farm roads and Tower Road. I’m happy to have company and will probably walk up the hill on Game Farm because of the post-COVID thing. I’d love company for any or all of this. My pace will be 10-11 minutes.

Hola Andres
Yo re puedo ayudar en lo que se pueda,
Yo no soy un corredor rápido soy lento, pero podemos hablar y te traduzco lo que se pueda con respecto a rutas o algo que quieras saber que no entiendas.
Yo estoy corriendo con los de 11-12 minutos por milla, pero lo que se diga antes de salir a correr to puedo ayudar.
Thank you for organizing the run. Was my first ever group run and I was excited to meet new people and have a company that kept my focus away from feelings of being tired.
Glad you could join us, @AlexCh, and we hope you can fit more runs into your schedule!
This was a huge group with our largest Sunday Skunkday turnout ever at 40 people. It was such fun to see so many runners happily chatting away beforehand. I hope everyone enjoyed the sunny—if chilly—weather. See you next week!
