Itinerary:

Today is the Boston Marathon, one year after last years horrible bombing! In the spirit of "Boston Strong" lets hit the trail and run one for Boston supporting all the victims from last year and all those who are running it today (April 21st)!

If you aren't familiar with the park, you may want to print and bring a trail map: http://www.nps.gov/ chat/planyourvisit/maps.htm. We plan to stay together, but you are welcome to do your own route if you are comfortable with the park and running alone. We do ask that you meet us back at the parking lot after the one hour run. We will account for everyone.

 

 

We will start on time or a few minutes early if everyone is there early. 


Parking is free.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:

 

There are a lot of ways to get to the Roswell Mill. It's at 120 and S. Atlanta Road in Roswell. Use either the physical address below or the lat/lon coordinates to get your own directions. We are meeting behind all of the shops at the Mill. Just keep going towards the water.

We are meeting at the trailhead behind the shops of Roswell Mill. It is where Hwy 9 (S. Atlanta St) and Hwy 120 (Marietta Hwy) intersect. There's a popular restaurant called Chaplin's in that shopping center. When you turn in to the shopping center (from either direction) you will be on Mill St. - Mill St dead ends in to Mill St. and you take a right on to Mill St which will dead end in to the parking lot.
