RUNaway Summer Runnin'


Summer RUNaway is an easy going, legs moving group You do not need to have been in RUNaway Moms prior to this summer and you don't need to commit to RUNaway Moms for the fall.  This is just a great "go to" summer running group.  The heat and humidity will affect your pace, so we'll just keep our summer full of happy paced runs that will be ready for a fall training season.  If you have friends or family in town, please invite them to join us if they are runners as well (boys are allowed too!)


Our summer RUNaway group will meet each Tuesday and Thursday morning at 6:05 am and will hit the trails promptly at 6:15 am* at various safe and lit  locations in The Woodlands (see below).  This is a "come when you can" group that is here for you when you need it BUT consistency is key.  Coach will provide the route as well as blinkie lights and headlamps for our predawn and sunrise runs.  Please wear light clothing (both weight and color) and a hat or a visor to keep your headlamp attached to.


This summer, our runs will be by mileage if you are a conditioned runner and by time if you are coming back from a running hiatus.  Both approaches work great for conditioning and running acclimation!  Running by time is a great way to ease up on the pressure to pace to fast and it will get us on and off the trails at the same time before Mr. Sun begins to burn into our brains.  (If you've taken a few months off, this is totally fine and will be a perfect group to get back on track.  Walking is perfectly okay and especially encouraged in the heat and humidity.  If you are a newbie or starting over after a far or more off, please cross train and walk this summer and we'll hit the trails in August!)  Based on our run time, you should be home by 7:15 or earlier if you or someone in your home needs to hit that rush hour traffic or head to a swim meet or golf tourney.
