This month’s Away Game will feature the iconic “Baby Buzzard” course, north of Hershey. This is the most challenging group run that we do each year: 16 tough miles in the mountains with a ton of climbing and a “non-trivial” water crossing. Bring nutrition, hydration, first aid, and a sense of adventure.
We’ll meet at the Buzzard Trailhead at 9 a.m. on Saturday, April 18.
Ambitious runners who want to tackle the Full Buzzard Marathon course (at their own risk) are welcomed to start with us as long as they are comfortable navigating the course on their own.
Post-run lunch spot will be at Snitz Creek Brewey in Annville. Follow the Facebook event for updates, carpooling requests, etc.

Last month’s “Away Game” had to be converted into a road run due to lingering snow and ice on the trails, so this month we’re planning to do what we wanted to do last month on the Horse-Shoe Trail!
We’ll meet at the IronSpire Complex in Adamston for a group long run on Sunday, March 29, at 9:30 a.m.
The plan is to meet at IronSpire, then carpool to Charlie Crowell’s house in Plowville, and run back to IronSpire along the Horse-Shoe Trail. The total distance of the run will be about 14.5 miles, but runners can elect to be dropped off at a different starting point in order to shorten the distance. (10- and 7-mile options will be available.)
Updates will be posted on Facebook closer to the day of the run.
Post-run lunch spot will be at Columbia Kettle Works (which is right in the IronSpire Complex).
