Round 3-Final State Street Showdown for Saturday, August 28th

Meet Time
6:20-6:25 a.m.

Run/Walk Time
Promptly at 6:30 a.m.

 
Meet Location
Maple Grove Mennonite Church
(This is right before the stop light at Kent and Smith Kramer)
2121 Smith Kramer Road
Hartville, OH

Running Notice
Every runner will need to run an out-and-back this week. We will NOT have transportation back to the start line. No one-way runs this week. Plan accordingly. We have many people running 16-22 miles this week and the roaming aid stations need to focus on keeping them hydrated and fueled. This is for their safety because of the heat!

Route Details
We are going to conquer the famous and feared State Street HILL! You WILL need this training for Akron and Columbus. I won't lie...this route sucks! However, this will benefit you beyond belief on race day. Trust me, hang with it, and kick this route's butt!
