March 2 Run 2 Wisconsin π§
hey everyone. had this idea for a while and wanted to throw it out there for those interested. 99% sure we can make it happen. anyway, i want to run chicago β wisconsin. its 55 miles to kenosha where we can take the metra back from. hereβs a tentative route I put together (starts at the bean because its iconic but if you live north you can start where you live and itll still be >50): https://www.strava.com/routes/3172742210994460738. it does the whole northern LFT and 25 miles of mcclory/kenosha bike path. Iβm thinking of doing this march 2, before spring marathon season starts and serving as certification that the aerobic tank is ready for more training. probably around 11-13 min pace, likely on the slower end. frequent food/water stops. i think the risk of injury is pretty low provided enough time on feet training and good rest after. you can use this to keep yourself accountable for winter base training! let me know if you are interested and ill throw you in a group chat (not binding yet πΊ).
and if you wanted the sunrise/sunset times they are 6:23 am - 5:43 pm so around 12 hours of usable light which should be plenty. probably will start around 5:30. train back from kenosha is 6:49 pm. bringing lots of food/water but will make a couple stops we can sort out later. get stoked!
