6.3 Mile Route
8.9 Mile Route

Three changes to the Black Walnut maps: [1] We fixed a .5 mile error, [2] we stay in East shore a bit longer at the end and [3] we cut out the “loop” after the old CB&I building that few took (most took the newer bridge after the old CB&I).

This means the routes became a bit shorter. Runners can make the 8.9 mile route 10 by staying on the waterway and going all the way to the Cheesecake Factory and back. Updated 7/31/23

With up to a 100 runners showing up some Sundays, we can overwhelm the parking lot. Please be considerate and do not park right in front of the businesses we meet at.

It’s that time of year again — time to change the clocks for the end of Daylight Saving Time. Fortunately, this is the proverbial time to “fall back,” giving ourselves another hour of sleep.

10.5 Mile Route – all of Flintridge, Carlton Woods, right on Sterling Ridge, left on Lake Woodlands, right on West Panther, back to Bagel
