The route we’ll be taking on June 29th
What to Bring:
Road running shoes should be fine, however it would be preferable to have a trail shoe - any road shoes should have a decent tread on them (ie not older, more worn-down soles)
In advance, check the forecast, you’ll potentially need a wind- or rain-proof jacket and water/ snacks as appropriate to your own needs for a 2 to 2.5 hour run.
