Tuesday Evening Run (TER)

TER is a great way to add a fun, yet challenging, evening run into your running routine. Plus, we almost always get pizza afterwards! Come out weekly and you'll have a new running buddy or 3 to help support you through your training plans, whatever they may be.

For all the first time runners: Hop over to our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/SGLRG/) after RSVP-ing and check out our massive presence there. You can easily find someone to connect with there for future runs! Our TER turnout is much larger than the RSVP list.

If you have a jacket or small bag you want to store during your run, you can do so at Zeeks pizza. Just stop in before the run and ask them to hold it in the back for you (consider sticking around for pizza in return for the favor).

We offer three different routes to choose from:

3 miles: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/4435923976

This route actually clocks in at about 3.3 miles, but it's better than your standard lake loop because we spend the first couple miles running up and along the top of Phinney Ridge with the 5 mile group. At 60th street we head back down the east side of the ridge and follow our noses back to Zeeks for some pizza and fun!

5 miles: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/4436114944

Our most popular route; we head up Phinney ridge on 80th and track south past the Woodland Park Zoo, after which we fly back down 50th and under Aurora. The trip back up to Zeeks always goes faster than you imagine it will and finishes with high-fives/fistbumps from your fellow runners for a job well done!

7 miles: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/4436115106

I heard you like hills, so we've got a couple for ya. We start with a climb up Phinney ridge and then head down the west side and into Whittier Heights. We then turn down 15th to 65th, trying to conserve some energy in preparation for the aggressive, 200+ foot climb back up Phinney (bonus points for running the entire hill). Once we get back to the top, we rejoin the 5-mile route for a casual jog around Woodland Park and back to Zeeks.

Hope to see you this Tuesday!
