August 30th @ 8 AM, a Bite of the Bluff.
Two hours: 1 out (Southbound), 1 back (Northbound). Start / Finish @ Aid Station 4 a.k.a. Renee’s Way. This run should get us down towards The Boundary Stones, but probably not quite all the way there. We have not run this section as part of The Bite yet. It is an out & back run – you can not get lost as we will leave arrows at key turns and there will be runners at all levels running. We even have a few runners that will be in taper caper mode for a little race called Wasatch100 or something like that.. :0 Come out for a run and hold these guys down to a slow taper pace!!!! 9 weeks to The Bluff!!
Longer distance/time options available (a detour to Aid Station 2 perhaps).
Driving directions to Aid Station 4:
From the rte 80/79 roundabout (rotary), proceed 3.9 miles north on Rte. 79.
Left on Dorset Lane, proceed .7 miles.
Right on Devonshire Lane, proceed .4 miles.
Right on Renee’s Way, proceed to the end.
Great idea to train on the coarse for the Bluff race. I need it cause whats better for breakfast than some good ol’ bites of the Bluff. The race is gonna be hard one to digest for me but with some big consumption of the main coarse over the next several weeks it should all go down quite well. Just gotta remember to chew your food before ya swallow. Oh ya and don’t eat too much too fast or you’ll get sick. Get it . O I’ll be there and hope to meet a bunch of you guys.
I’d like to sample a bit more from the Bluff buffett if anyone else is interested. maybe add another hour (ish) onto the plate if that sounds good.
Nice BITE today….. we forgot to take photos ARGH!!!!!We did pick up a nick name for Ticket! Still need a couple more though….
After my ankle recovers I will be ready for a BIG BITE – let’s plan one for over the Bluff and through to somewhere around, up and back up, up, up some more, over, and drop cars or something BIG!!!! YEAH BABY!!!!!
Jiffy – check in girl!

Hey Now !! Aiko Aiko all day !!! any plans to take a “Bite of the Bluff ” soon. I am interested in the hard sections. BluffBluffBluff!!!!! Iggy hows your ankle?
Great idea for another BIG BITE run this weekend!!!!!!
As for my ankle – it is great now – thanks! It makes me so mad when I twist it at the beginning of a (what was supposed to be) great run.
Maybe we can put a long run together for Saturday or Sunday morning.
I think Sat. morning would be the best for me. Who is up for that this weekend?
IGGY
It would have to be Saturday for me.
I might be able to do this Saturday. Just let me know when and where.
Saturday early like 7 or so. at the parking lot for Bluffs head. Maybe a cruise up and over the Bluff down thru the James reserve then out Lone Pine trail to Coan pond ( by passing the Rockland preserve ) and back to lot via Mattabasset trail. What do you think? I am open to other options. This is just an idea,
