GROUP RUNS

Here is a "blog" of the group runs by glenn - he tries to update it each week (yeah right!!) -
The goal is to give you an idea of what to expect at our group runs

GLRR Group Run blog

Saturdays 8:00AM GLRR Group Run
 

Training on the Boston Marathon Course is done for 2008.  The plan is to do it again next year.  In fact it is already in the calendar (really - go check the calendar link above).
 

So now we are back on the normal Saturday schedule - which is 8:00 AM Group Runs from the GLRR Office in downtown Lowell (this is also the former site of Marx Running and Fitness)

The GLRR office is upstairs in the second floor - follow the hallway as it twists and turns - you come to the office.  We have a fridge, kitchen and most important - a bathroom

You do not need to be fast to participate in this group run.  I (Glenn) do most of my heavy training during the week.  I am committed to running your pace (provided it's not fast than 7:30s).  Check the blog - I've done short runs, longs runs and slow runs (as slow as 13 min pace) - so if I'm there, you will have a partner!  No excuses allowed!!

Here are a few of the courses we run:

4.5 Mile Loop

8.7 Mile Loop

10 Mile Loop

12.7 Mile Belvedere Loop

11.25 Mile East End & East Dracut Loop

Baystate Prep 18 Miler

 

Sundays 8:00AM Non-GLRR Group Run
The time for this run changes as the weather changes - basically we try to avoid the bitter cold and blistering heat.

8:00AM Sunday Group Runs from Gold's Gym in Chelmsford (directions)

Many of us also run with a group from Gold's Gym in Chelmsford on Sunday's. 
This is not a club event - it is hosted by the kindness of Rick Dupuis who runs Gold's in Chelmsford. 
You need not be a member.  Most of these runs tend to be longer, faster and feature more hills than the club runs.

Here are a few of routes we run:

Robin Hill 9 Mile

Westford Center 11 Mile

Tyngsboro Bridge - Dunstable Rd - Sherburne Rd - 12 Miler
     - add-ons for 15 to 22 by going farther along the river in Lowell

Flat 13 Mile

Tyngsboro Bridge 15.5 Mile

21.5 Mile Loop
