Sunday training program

  • Sunday training runs are coordinated by Glenn Pacé, Owen Hope and occasionally by other race committee members.
  • These are the traditional routes – our run leader will be aware of any trail closures for specific weeks and post exact routes a few days prior on our Facebook & Strava pages as well as briefing runners in person at the start of the run.
  • Run meeting times, start and end locations are correct, but the exact routes in between will be changed as needed based on current trail closures.
  • There will likely be runners in a variety of pace groups on each run.
  • Please check our Facebook or Strava on the day before or morning of the run for last minute updates.
  • Use the Feedback Form to send questions to the training run coordinator.
