6:15 a.m. road run
Aim to arrive between 6:05 and 6:10. The group leaves Picaroons Roundhouse at 6:15 sharp. About 6.5 km, counter-clockwise, with two planned regroup stops.
The herd’s useful corner.
The stable plan lives here. The current plan lives on Strava. Use this page when you need the next event, the holiday rule or the right place to ask a question.
The rule that prevents confusion
Shoes on. Strava checked. Then out the door.
Weather, holidays, special routes and cancellations belong in the individual Strava event. If an event and this website ever disagree, follow the event.

Normal mornings and holiday mornings.
The holiday plan is deliberately separate from the recurring schedule. That keeps an 8:00 a.m. celebration from making someone late for the next 6:15 a.m. Wednesday.
8:00 a.m. special event
Bigger herd, more social time and often coffee or a gathering afterward. Confirm the event before leaving.
5:30 p.m. trail run
Odell Park bottom lot. Distance and route respond to conditions, daylight and the people who arrive.
