Green Lane, Sunday, July 25

Looking for something different and challenging? Then the July 25 Green Lane event is for you. We will be using two maps for the Orange and Green/Red courses. Runners for these courses will have to walk down hill on a new trail to a remote start on the 1:10,000 Green Lane map. After running this part of their course they will punch out to walk back up the 1.3km 40m climb trail to the 1:5,000 Green Lane Nature Ctr. punch back in and finish their course on the 1:5,000 map. Because of the rather hot weather we have been having this summer we are allowing these runner to walk back up the hill at there own pace and it is mostly up hill. The White, Yellow and Brown runners will only be running on the 1:5,000 Green Lane Nature Center Map. We have combined the Green and Red courses for this event because we want to keep the courses shorter and fun because of the walk up hill between the two maps. There will be plenty of water at the bottom remote start and at the top of the hill where you will punch back into your course to finish.

Come see how well you adjust to the difference in running on a 1:10,000 map and then on a 1:5,000 map. I think it will be fun to see how the runners do.
