Hello ORC,
This coming weekend is the last weekend before July 4th weekend. It’s time for last minute training runs before the Peachtree Road Race. And it is the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year. I hope I heard that right. This Saturday is the Atlanta Summer Beer fest at the Masquerade. While you are there, take a look at the New 4th Ward park that was built for the Beltline. This Saturday is also the 2nd Atlanta Streets Alive. The hours are later in the afternoon. PAWS Atlanta is holding a free festival. And this sounded interesting; it is the Shut The Hell Up! Rally for Inclusion 2011 at the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit on Sunday morning.
What else is going on? What events would you like to share?
On the race calendar this weekend is the Save Our Skin - Skin Cancer Awareness 5K Run/Walk at Perimeter, the 4th Annual HBCU Alumni 5K Run/Walk in Grant Park, the Running for Hope 5K in Lawrenceville, the Dirty Spokes Central Park 2.5 Mi / 5.0 Mi Trail Running Race in Cumming, the Gwinnett Co. Fire Dept.'s 5-Alarm 5K & Fun Run in Suwannee, and the Atlanta Pride Run/Walk 5K at Piedmont Park. I am not so sure about the Pride run because I haven’t found concrete info on it.
This Wednesday you will be running route 8, the East Lake Golf Course run. The link to the route is at the bottom of this e- mail. After getting out of the hill on Garland, the route runs downhill until climbing Oakview Rd. then the route continues to climb Howard to a quick downhill on College. Then it’s the climb on Wisteria, and a finishing uphill at the shop. This route does have a lot of climbing. This route will be suggested. After the run, it's off to Mojo's Pizza for food, drinks and trivia.
Thanks for making the Oakhurst Running Club one of the friendliest running club in Atlanta.
