Field Trip Long Run @ Redmond Watershed

Update! This is cancelled due to poor air quality :( run safe

Hi everyone,

Our next field trip long run will be on Sunday, August 20 at the Redmond Watershed. The run will begin at 8 AM so we can beat the heat. We hope you'll join us for some rolling trails, soft surface, and if we're lucky, mid-run blackberry snacks!

Features of this route:

• Horses! Be careful as you run by them though
• Rolling, soft surface and shaded trails
• Ample parking and bathrooms at the parking lot

Logistics

• Parking: Redmond Watershed Parking Lot 
• Start time: 8:00 AM
• Route: There are several loop options in the watershed. We will break into pace groups with run leaders who are familiar with the routes. 
• Transportation: Please carpool if possible! Check our FB group for carpooling or reach out to Claire Wendle or Madeline Westerhoff if you need a ride.
• Food: Post-run picnic, brunch, and snacks! GF and vegan options will be provided.
• Drinks: Water, chocolate milk (dairy + non-dairy), Gatorade
• Please RSVP to this event so we know how much food to get and how many people to expect!

What are field trip long runs?

This is a social long run that happens every 4-6 weeks, where we meet at a scenic, soft-surface location near Seattle. Post-run food and drinks provided. Mitch helped to start this event during COVID with the goal of creating opportunities to socialize with each other and experience the amazing scenery we have around Western Washington.

Why should I come?

Long runs are better together! Enjoy the energy of running with a big group, the scenery outside of Green Lake and the Burke-Gilman Trail, soft surfaces, and doughnuts! Friends-of-CNW members welcome.
