BCRR Midweek Update: John’s LOOOOOOOOOONG Run

SAVE THE DATE:  John’s LOOOOOOOOOONG Run is slated for Saturday, December 27th at John Phillip's House- 8211 Burkhart, Houston, Texas, 77055 at 6:30 a.m. 

The  full route is a 21 mile  loop with 6 water stops, but there are several ways to adjust the distance if you plan to run less. 

Make plans for breakfast, drinks, and a dip in the hot tub following the run. This year dinning will be alfresco. John will set up a tent with tables and chairs outside. All cooking will be done in the garage. 

The BCRR porta potties will be used if you need them. This year we will not have access to hot showers. John is asking for a minimum $5 donation to help with costs. Additionally John needs a few good souls to help with cooking and Gatorade. 

PLEASE RSVP to jrphillips@comcast.net so that John can make sure we have plenty of food and drinks. Arrive early enough to not miss the start and please be careful  when parking, there may be sprinklers or Christmas decorations near the street. This event is open to all BCRR members and guests. Let’s make your last long run before the marathon both productive and fun.    

Here is the Map:
