Got a case of the Mondays? This “Goldilocks” run, which starts and finishes at Mighty Squirrel Brewing Co., will cure it!

It's 4-mile, all road, loop that’s not too easy and not too hard, but just right. Great beer, food, and company await to motivate you through to the finish.

Mile 1: 125’ climb up Trap-elo
Mile 2: Rolling recovery mile
Mile 3: Nice and easy descent – or leg it out, the beer is near
Mile 4: Flat with a final kick up Mighty Squirrel Mountain
(Sometimes we do the reverse.)

If you see PLUS in the title & you're an experienced trail runner, then grab your trail shoes & join us for 4+ mi of rocks, roots, mud, & hills in Beaver Brook / Rock Meadow / Lone Tree Convservation. (Think Prospect Hill 4 Miler with 1/2 the elevation.) The trail group leaves the brewery @6:10-6:15 & runs 8-9 min/mi pace to be back around 6:50.

Run the trails for an extra challenge, run the road course for the regular challenge, or be extra mighty & grind 8+ mi & 500'+ of elevation!

NOTES:

  • We consider this an intermediate-level route for runners. (And the PLUS an intermediate-level route for trail runners.)
  • Sweeper Policy: No sweeper. (See the first bullet.)
  • If you're not feeling Mighty, there's a shorter 2.5 mi route you can run.
  • The avg. pace of the group is between 8-9 min/mi. Some run faster (6-7 min/mi), some run a little slower (9-10 min/mi).
  • If it's your first Mighty Monday, introduce yourself & let us know what pace you run so you can buddy-up or find the person you'll be chasing down.
  • Here's what's brewing.
  • Here's the food truck schedule.
