It’s been great to meet a lot of people over the past few weeks, and I was thinking of arranging a post-work group run on a Thursday night from the Cornell campus, and hopefully if there’s enough people, we should be able to split into different pace groups too. Conversational pace preferred - save the workout for Adam’s Tuesday night sessions! For me, that would be around an 8 min/mile.
I thought we could meet at 5:45pm at the entrance to the outdoor track at Charles Berman field, and set off at 6pm potentially run down the East Ithaca Recreation Way/ Dryden Rail Trail until people get bored - maybe going as far as Varna and doubling back which should be around 6 or 7 miles total, but open to suggestions too. This route should allow people to cut back the distance too if they want.
I know I’ve not left a great deal for people to respond, but I’ll be there to enjoy potentially the last warm Fall evening of the year - hope to see you there, and might stay out for a quick pint afterwards if people are interested! Would be great if you could post on here if you think you’ll be able to come.
I’m interested in that on Thursdays when I don’t have a workshop. I’m also ok with being dropped and running alone because an 8min mile is not conversational paced for me.
When adding this run to my calendar, I realized that there isn’t enough time for me to do this run and get to an FLRC meeting that I have every other Thursday night. So, this week I will not be coming, but if you do it next week, I do plan to come.
I am in the same situation as Tonya - have an FLRC meeting with her this evening. I am also not on campus today, but usually am on Thursdays. I plan on participating next week!
I’ll be running again tomorrow at 6pm - would be good to see some of you! I’m stealing Heather’s pace poll if anyone wants to check who else may come too!
Hi Jon! Are we still meeting by the outdoor track? And on the Tower Road (north) side or the Campus Road (south) side? PS - The pace poll originally came from Adam. Is there no originality any more?!??
I’ve been starting from the Campus Road side of the track, but happy to move to somewhere else if you think there’s a better spot! If not, see you later
