Houston Marathon Weekend, Urban Trekkers segment. ~5 miles. Newcastle Trail

Join the four major Meetup walking groups in Houston on a joint quest to complete a marathon of hikes on the same weekend as the official Houston Marathon.
Look for the four hikes with

1. Thursday Evening Houston Urban Trekkers
2. Friday Evening NEO Houston

3. Saturday Houston Area Trails and More https://www.meetup.com/hatsandmore/events/303835231/
4. Sunday City Walks Houston https://www.meetup.com/en-AU/city-walks-houston/events/312492556/

The idea is to complete the four segments over the weekend so you can brag on Monday that you did a marathon over the weekend.

Our walks are usually at least six miles but to get the four walks adding up to marathon length, I only needed four, so once we loop up and down Newcastle, we can go down Bellaire and loop around Whole Foods and Little Woodrow’s, getting another mile or so.

Do not park on nearby residential streets If parking lot full, you are allowed to park on church lot diagonally across Bellaire.

Please see in photos where to meet and where we will walk.

This first walk will be flat, simple and not too long.

MAP IS WRONG I CANNOT FIX IT
WE WILL BE AT CORNER OF NEWCASTLE AND BELLAIRE
NO MATTER WHAT ADDRESS I PUT IN, MAP DEFAULTS TO WRONG LOCATION

Dress for the weather, never know how hot or cold our Januarys are.

Shoes for concrete trails/sidewalks.

Yes, you are officially OK to park diagonally across the street in the big church parking lot.

There are restrooms in Evelyn’s Park and you can come early and get food at Betsy’s If you need it.
