We will meet up at 7:30 AM Central Standard Time at the Swinging Bridge at Pickett State Park. (Google Map Link: https://goo.gl/maps/9o9iTgLx78abUhCA9)
The purpose of these training runs is to help familiarize yourself with the course as well as give you an opportunity to interact with some of the race staff and other runners. You do not have to be registered to participate so feel free to invite your running partners, pacers, etc.
The training runs are completely free but you need to make your own lodging/camping reservations (link above). You are responsible for your own safety, nutrition, and hydration on these training runs. Plan on carrying your own water and whatever supplies you may need including first aid and food. At least two water bottles are recommended but a bladder and a pack is better. Consider them just a more organized fun run. This is how we keep these training runs free and without requiring a permit from the land management agencies. Route Map will be posted to this event discussion board closer to training run weekend.
We love to follow up the training runs with a post run cookout. Feel free to invite family and friends as well if they are camping out for the weekend. We will have a signup page go out a little closer to the scheduled training dates to get a better idea of numbers expected to participate as well as any dietary restrictions.
