THE GREEN MILE (St Patty’s Saturday)

THE GREEN MILE (St Patty’s Saturday)

Attention runners, ruckers and even bikers …

Are you looking for an opportunity to put some easy miles in with your brothers? Maybe you need a training run for an upcoming race? Perhaps you just need a long-distance Saturday run/ruck or ride?

FREE- no cost…. No shirts… Just a stupid time

Several PAX are interested in running the Little Sugar Creek Greenway on St. Patty’s Saturday and want you to join us for The Green Mile.

This is an out and back sticking to mainly Sugar Creek Greenway paths. You can go as far out as you want. 5k to 50k….the initial group is committing to a 25k out to Johnston YMCA in NODA and back-  3025 N Davidson St in Charlotte.

There are several PAX dropping clown cars at the YMCA to carpool back any runners only wanting the 25k

SOB’s chicken run and Waxhaw’s Paper Trail will converge together on Sat March 15th at the Sugar Creek Greenway. Launch will be from Best Western hotel in Pineville. (This is an alternate start from last year to avoid the safety issue of running in the road around the mall.)

9825 Leitner Dr, Pineville NC 28134. Park along the main road, or inside the hotel lot.

Official launch time at 6am. Wear your favorite green St.Pattys attire. Bring hydration pack and all needed nutrition. Water, bananas, misc snacks will be provided at the launch location and at the 25k mark, but no water stations along the way. Headlamps/reflective gear suggested.

The route has been pre-planned and is not a straight shot. There are a few closed paths and several turns where PAX can get turned around. I will attempt to be ahead of the group and add chalk marks at turns, however, please stick with at least one running partner. The best directions are to download the route for guidance. Call me anytime along the route if needed – (810)459-9450

Grab a running partner, and let’s do a really stupid and utterly pointless run together.
