More info on the trail run

What: Trail Run followed by Happy Hour

When: Thursday, 5/6, 6:30 pm

Where: Wissahickon Trails, Philly. Meet in front of Valley Green Inn  (map and directions) before 6:30 pm

Why: Because you like nature, running, drinking, watching Helen fall, or just hanging out with us as single people



Details:

• The distance will be 3-5 miles.
• Terrain will be rolling. We're running in the woods (Wissahickon Valley) a quarter mile from our house.  Expect a single-track dirt surface with some roots and rocks. There might be a creek crossing or other natural adventures.  The steepest climb will be ~150 feet/half mile and is runnable. 
• The run is part of the May trail running series that the Wissahickon Wanderers running club organizes. The course will be marked and someone will record the times, but it is informal and there's no pressure to run it as a race.  There will probably be 20-30 people there if the weather is good.
• The trails are on both sides of the Wissahickon Creek. There's also a flat, wide dirt path called Forbidden Drive that goes along next to the creek. So, if you're ever tired of the hills or the terrain, you can just drop down to the dirt path and run to the start/finish at Valley Green Inn. The scenery on Forbidden Drive is almost as beautiful as it is on the trails.
• The club has runners of all abilities. The vibe is low-key and fun.
• Noah and I will wear Bride and Groom caps to celebrate our wedding.
• After the run, we socialize outside for a bit, and then change into cleaner clothes and hang out with friends, drinks and food in the Valley Green Inn.

We hope some of you reading this will make it to the trail run! Let us know in the comments if you have questions.
