Hi Saturday runners,
 
Here are the pumphouse conditions, as of Thursday 3/6, at 12 noon:

 

They've finally cleared some of the giant snow piles around the perimeter of the parking lot, making it almost usable; but the lot itself has a few inches of snow on top of ice and is very slippery.  A light car could have a problem in the lot.
 

The road today was ALL ICE from about mile 1 through mile 2.  Running wasn't too bad going out, but coming back, slightly down hill, was a slippery adventure.

 

Things may improve a lot with the warm weather predicted for the next week, but I don't think we can count on it for this Saturday.

 

So I'm suggesting meeting at the mailboxes at 7:30 again.  Is anyone up for putting out water this week?

  

Here's the schedule for future runs:
 
Mar  8    open
Mar 15   open
Mar 22   open
Mar 29   open

You can sign up by sending an email to water@runner.org or by replying to this message.
 
The recommended quantities are listed below.
Please don't retrieve water before 9:30.

 
Thanks, Skip
