Exact meeting location TBD, the website will be updated by Tuesday with the exact location.<br></p><p><strong>Courses:<br></strong></p><p>Two courses this week, a short and a shorter options. The park is fairly small and flat, but is a little bit tricky in a few areas. If you want a longer run, do both courses!</p><strong>Schedule:<br></strong><ul><li>17:30 - Registration Opens, First-Timer instruction, and courses open</li><li>19:00 - Courses Close</li></ul><p><strong>Who:</strong><br><strong></strong></p><p><span class="redactor-invisible-space"> You can come out anytime, no experience required!

</p><br><p>Ensure that you have good footwear for running on and
off trails with decent grip. Wear something comfortable that you don't
mind getting a little dirty! If it's wet outside you might want to
consider a change of shoes and socks. A compass is optional. If you
have a whistle, please bring one. Wear running clothes suitable for
being outside and active and suitable for the weather. Bring something
to drink and some
snacks for afterwards.
