COFEE RUN THIS WEEK: We will meet at the Neptune Statue, run the the 64th Street entrance of the park, run towards the visitor center on the Cape Henry trail, extend that an extra half mile, and then return to the Neptune Statue to get in our full 12 miles. We shoud finish around 8:45 so bring your beach stuff and we will have a quick swim before meeting up at Starbuck's on 31st and Atlantic at 9:30. The people in Starbucks will no doubt appreciate that we took a swim:-). Anyone with a GPS, please bring it along.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This series of Sunday long runs is designed to help you prepare for the Rock & Roll Half Marathon (although anyone is welcome to come out and run). We run a 10 - 11 minute mile pace. I will have my phone with me until 6:20 am ([masked]). We don't wait for maybes.

If you are not already signed up for the Rock & Roll Half Marathon (Virginia Beach, Labor Day Weekend) please remember to sign up for the Get Fit Challenge as part of the Hampton Roads Runners' team. You will get a $10 discount.

Hope you can join us!

    • “ Angela did great, ran the whole 13.23 miles in 2 hours and 7 minutes. Great job girl!!!! ”
    • “ Awesome run this morning - great social after. ”
    • “ Great run! I loved beginning and ending at the beach- having the ocean there to cool off in after was great! (Just need to make sure I have more quarters for parking.) Also appreciated the opportunity to meet runners from other pace groups after. ”
    • “ It was great meeting everyone, I look forward to future meet-ups! ”
    • “ What a great run! This was fantastic...and I have officially killed the half marathon distance! WOOO HOOO! Thank you so much for organizing these! Jillian you have turned me into an actual runner...remember when I used to question going beyond 6??? Bryan...I can't thank you enough for becoming my trainer. I may whine but the push is excellent and you are fantastic! I can't believe we did the whole thing in under 10 min miles! I love running with this group...you are all amazing and have really changed my life! I can't thank you enough! ”
    • “ Well, it was a very nice run. The pace was good and the run through First Landing really added a new dimension to my weekly long run. Having not run on the trails before, it really created havoc with my calves toward the end but still was a very enjoyable run. ”
    • “ Great to see so many folks come out. Ocean dip was great too. ”
    • “ The run was enjoyable. We split up into 2 groups: one group ran 12 miles, the second group ran 13.1 at a little faster pace. The 13.1 mile run was challenging - I believe we clocked a 9:30 pace. Enjoyed meeting everyone who ran. ”
