Fw: BRC - Rock 'n' Roll Half/Full Marathon training - Week 5 Long Run

Good morning everyone! Tomorrow will be our week 5 long run for the Rock 'n Roll St Louis Marathon.
 
Toby and Dan and some other BRC Saturday morning regulars will be off in Mattoon for a Half Ironman Triathlon on Saturday. Coupled with Dewey's Wingfest 5k and the Labor Day weekend, we're not sure how many people will be there tomorrow.
 
That said, those of you that can make it, please meet at the prescribed times below in the parking lot behind the Belleville St Louis Bread Company.
 
Half Marathoners – We will start at 8:00am and will be running 8 miles (see schedule). We will run 1 loop on our 5 mile route and 1 loop on our 3 mile route. If you aren't familiar with the route, there are water fountains at approx. 1 mi, 2.5 mi, and restrooms at 3.5 mi. We usually break for a couple of minutes at the end of the loop to get drinks of Gatorade, take a GU, etc.
 
Marathoners – We will start at 7:10am and are scheduled to run 16 miles (see schedule). We will run 3 loops on our 5 mile route and pick up another mile in there somewhere. If you aren't familiar with the route, there are water fountains at approx. 1 mi, 2.5 mi, and restrooms at 3.5 mi. We usually break for a couple of minutes at the end of the loop to get drinks of Gatorade, take a GU, etc.
 
Thanks,
Toby and Dan
