Dear Pacers,
I’ve always considered the Wednesday Night Run to be a core component of the Pagoda Pacers’ identity. I think it is a primary means of drawing new members into the club. During the last 3 years, we have consistently provided leaders for both a long and short route at the Wednesday Night Run. This was an attempt to accommodate different ability levels and create a welcoming environment for new runners.
Starting in 2025, we won’t be able to provide the same level of attention. I’d like to highlight these changes:
- We will continue to post a map for a long and short route each week. I will continue to lead the longer route, but we won’t always have a guaranteed leader for the short route. Week-to-week we’ll manage with whoever is in attendance.
- I’ve had some requests to mix in new locations for WNR. If you have any ideas for new routes, please let me know. Maybe it’s your go-to loop near your home. Give some consideration to adequate parking at the start, as well as manageable traffic and visibility along the route.
- Please don’t ask me “Where’s Matt?” at an upcoming WNR. It’s still too soon.
Contact me with any feedback.
Steve
