Cycle 5, Cutback
Hello easy week - when we go for a short jaunt on the lakefront path then meander over to Fleet Feet for Ready2Run Packet Pickup.
Ready2Run Packet Pickup - that’s right, you have a bib to pick up this Saturday or next Saturday (other locations throughout the suburbs are available, check your email).
Saturday, September 9 - Fleet Feet Lincoln Square: 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Saturday, September 16 - Fleet Feet Old Town: 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Notable Path Events
PAWS Chicago 5k takes place at Montrose Grove 16. Race starts at 7:30am, which means they will be setting up as we start. Their route heads north directly from the start such that we will be long gone when they come through our gathering spot and they should be well clear of the area when we are returning.
Weather, Water Stops, & Turnarounds
☀ Sunny, 62°-67°F with humidity in the 80%s. Sticky but cooler than lately. Should be a nice morning for the run.
🚰 Waveland, Diversey, North Ave, Monroe, and Montrose
🏃Novice: 14 miles (Monroe water stop)
