It's HOT !!
That's really all I have to say. If you run Saturday then expect it to be hot. If you run Sunday, expect it to be hotter. It's not my fault. I think gravity is pulling the sun nearer to us. It makes sense. There are more people on earth than in the past and they're generally heavier, and greater mass = greater gravitational pull. That's pretty much the extent of my science knowledge except that I'm pretty good at determining hot....and it is.
The Long Hamilton route begins in town - runs to Hamilton by way of Thomas Mill, and then runs the Hamilton loop before returning to Leesburg via the bike path (which for some reason is frequented by those damn bikers). An early start is recommended.
Where/When:
Meet at Loudoun County High School at 6 AM
LRR member Pat Miller makes these coffee mugs featuring the club logo especially for us.
The mugs are $20.00 each. To order, contact Pat Miller or catch up with her at a club run.
the heat

Early Saturday Start
Submitted by Christy on Thu, 2010-07-22 16:39.We'll trick the heat by starting early! That has to work, right?
A few of us discussed a 6:30 start for Saturday's run starting at Market Station and continuing up Thomas Mill. Anyone interested?
Christy :)
