| Itinerary: |
The Egg Nog Jog is officially listed as 10.8km plus, on the four rural roads encompassing the Terra Cotta Conservation Area. Hiking here is challenging enough. The course involves running to the bottom of the Niagara Escarpment at the Credit River, then progressively up to the top before returning to the start. Though the distance is not too great, this is an exercise in pacing and requires substantial hill training. It often snows or rains, and the roads may be slippery.
I have forgotten whether this is my 3rd or 4th attempt, but I have never finished without walking and welcome anyone looking for a challenge. Please show me up.
The race is put on by the Georgetown Runners, an established local club. This, their 25th Anniversary of the run, is the first time having sponsorship in The Ontario Migraine Clinic, and a charitable donation goes to Cancer Assistance Services of Halton Hills. There is also a 1 mile fun run. Registering before Nov. 19th gets you a 25th anniversary technical garment, and Egg Nog is served afterwards.
Please register here.
A carpool can be worked out. |
