Next Sunday's run will begin at Susan Hunt's house. Meet where Selwyn runs into Reynolds Street - very close to where Reynolds joins Beechwood Blvd.

I will not be around the next two Sundays. If Paula or Teri are not at those runs will someone please send mail to everyone?

The Father's Day (just a gentle reminder) Sunday run will begin at Julie's house: 6693 Kinsman - it is the second one in from Dallas.

Running Routes Websites

You can map out a running route and it will tell you the distance - using Google maps. Apparently you can save and share runs as well.

http://www.usatf.org/routes/

Go to the link and on the search page, enter "Sq. Hill" for the location and "Pittsburgh" for the city. The regular Wednesday/ Friday run is called the "East End Runners Wed Fri Loop" - it should be the only one that comes up with those search terms.

Here are two more to try out:
http://www.mapmyrun.com/
http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/

These sites should also be good for mapping out walking routes when you are visiting a new place. I get frustrated with the mapping sites geared to cars that will not let you go the wrong way on a 1-way street :-)

June 11, 2006 Sunday Run

Next Sunday's run will be downtown (an Arts Festival run!) - starting at the Hilton. The Run to the Run will start at Beechwood and Wilkins at 6 - we'll head straight down Wilkins to Fifth and take that all the way into town.
