Three Longer Saturday Training Runs this Summer

This summer we will have three longer Saturday runs in scenic areas around Fort Collins. The first one will be June 9th in Eden Valley.

Below are a few more details from FCRC President Connie D. As the date gets closer, she will provide more details.

Final day to submit an order for FCRC long & short sleeve t-shirts, singlets and hats is this Sunday, May 6th.

We are planning a longer Saturday run once a month during the summer. June will be Eden Valley in Loveland, July is Redstone Canyon, and August will be Old Flowers Road.

The Eden Valley Run will be Saturday, June 9th, 7AM, so mark your calendar! It will be about 13 miles and I will send out the details as we get closer. Afterwards, we’ll have a potluck breakfast in the picnic area for anyone who’s interested.

To all running any of the CO Marathon races this weekend, good luck and have a blast!!

Last Horsetooth Half Training Run

The first climb of the Horsetooth Half Marathon is quite steep!

The final Horsetooth Half training run before the actual half marathon is Saturday, April 7th. Meet at the Maxwell Natural Area parking lot (as usual) at 8:00 A.M.

FCRC President Connie won’t be there this time due to tapering for the Boston Marathon. Wish her luck!

Another Horsetooth Half Training Run

The first climb of the Horsetooth Half Marathon is quite steep!

Sunday will be yet another Horsetooth Half Training Run! Here’s more information from FCRC President Connie D.

Can you believe this summerlike weather?! Feels more like late May than March! This Sunday, March 25th is another Horsetooth Half training run. We will start from Maxwell Open Space parking lot at 8 A.M.

Distances and paces vary. I will be going over the north dam and back, but if anyone want to run the course or the old course backwards, you could do that also.

If you want to run the course that ends at New Belgium, you may want to post on our Facebook page to work out transportation logistics.

Thursday night runs tend to be low key with a few runners showing up. Hope to see you out there!
