11/22 Run information
Both groups will meet at 7 am to run.
Full marathon group - 3 mile run route
Half marathon group - 6.5 mile run route
Note: These runs are intended to be taper runs down from the race last weekend. However, because some half marathoners will be gearing up to train for the Austin marathon, it would be wise to only run the 3 mile run (instead of the 6.5 miles) to be fresh for the 16 miles the next week.

9/27 Marathon Route
Hello! It is a big week for the marathon group - 23 miles! We are going to do two loops - one 12 miles and one 11 miles.

9/27 Half Marathon Route
Hello everyone! It is our 11 mile run - heck, we are almost 1/2 marathoners already! This route is similar to the 9.5 mile route we did a few weeks ago, except that instead of turning on Lockener and going all the way out to Landa, we will turn on Lockener, then on Wood and take it past Walnut to Landa. After that, the rest of the turns are identical to the 9.5 run which most people seemed to enjoy.
Update: There are actually a few different turns near the end of the run than we did on the 9.5 mile, but it is pretty similar up for the most part.
