Itinerary:

Come get ONE FULL OUT & BACK + THE OUT AGAIN at Roswell Area Park (RAP) after work today. This is a hybrid trail run where we'll be focusing on a easier start/warmup and easing back into our gravel routine, since the trail is a combination of packed gravel and asphalt (it's a bit more of a beating (for me at least)). There is little to no elevation and wide enough for running side by side, the pace will be somewhat fast once we warm up, but we'll settle into our grooves after a casual start. Feel free to run as SLOW or as FAST as you'd like...just try to use one another to push yourself out of your comfort zone!

Starting from the first parking lot on the left, we'll cover 5 miles (on the ORANGE TRAIL) at a steady, yet quick pace. From the Kiosk area we'll head out in a clockwise fashion, looping back around after the tennis courts to return back to the Kiosk...then we'll head back out clockwise to RAP up at the "roundabout" for a solid 5 mile effort.

Please arrive a few minutes early to stretch/warm-up, TL check in and introductions as we will be leaving on time. You may want to bring a headlamp since some of the sections are a little dark...but for the most part it is well lit.

p.s. this is the 10k map but it's the same path (out, back and out again).
