OK. whaddya got for me?

1. what day?
2. what time? and time zone?
3. how long is the run?
4. a fartleky type thing? or just a run?
5. up and down? or just flat? if up/down, are you willing to hand-regulate treadmill incline?
7. if just a run, then ABC & D? we start, and split in groups? groups leave at different intervals and the goal is we all end together? like hilly vanilli?

thank you. let me help drill this down a bit. we're more limited on mon and wed as to when we can schedule this. there's a glut of mon and wed run events. so, we're better able to do this - more freedom as to times - if we do any of the other 5 days.

Saturday or Sunday morning would work too, maybe even a 6am start since no kids to get ready for school.

Monday and Tuesday mornings (5-6 am ET) are good for me, though I realize you are Pacific time so that's probably no go. I generally bike in the morning and run in the evening, so weekday evening run could work, just can't be later than 8ish ET.

I haven't done a group run yet, so I'm kinda curious to see how this works out.

Easy run at lunch?

I'm also not sure these runs will be as successful as the group rides. I only run on the treadmill when I absolutely have to, but could get behind an easier 1 hr effort at lunchtime.

3 of our 5 currently weekly ride events take place at 5:30 or 6am EST, which means i don't do them - i've never been on them, seen them. so we'll certainly have a run in your preferred time slot. but the 1st weekly run on the schedule will probably be more in my time zone, so i know what in the wide wide world of virtual running we're doing on these group runs before i schedule some where i don't know what you all will be up to.

Yes, I like that idea.

I favor a Sunday run in 6-9 am ET. Start with 10k, race or group run doesn’t matter to me. Please whatever you do have it on run only course. I almost flew off the treadmill the other day when a cyclist sideswiped me. I guess I need more practice with the spatial awareness thing. I’m able to pass by other runners ok.
