Aug. 25 Run: Meet at 61C Cafe for a Runner's Choice Run

We have been in so many different neighborhoods for so long, let's meet back at home base for a 61C run, where there are so many different options for routes.  1839 Murray Ave.

Last week, we started at Biddle's Escape and Virginia led us through the leafy Edgewood streets, under and over the Parkway, train tracks, and the busway.   We enjoyed the buttery treats from Madeleine's and were joined by various RG guests, which enhanced the sweetness of the pastries/coffee.

I since received notes from Wendy from the previous week's run/walk that started in Lawrenceville, so I am including them below:

İMi gente!

Yesterday, walkers enjoyed a brisk hike through secret L’ville passages (courtesy Beth) followed by some enthusiastic window shopping along Butler Street (“…like Shadyside, 40 years ago.”) In between, we toured the architecturally fascinating Hatfield Street, including Hatfield Laundry, the home of the Pittsburgh Lettering Club. At the well-attended coffee at Espresso a Mano, runners and walkers tucked into some excellent pastries during their usual Sunday morning gabfest. The discussion ranged from CHoP to Brooklyn to Target; the overall theme: female empowerment.

Stay tuned for a NEW, exciting starting location for a run/walk coming up over the next few weeks.
