WEEK 16 - OCMM TRAINING - 5 / 10 MILES & Pancake Breakfast

Announcements @ 6:15am

Congratulations, you are almost to the start line so smile and enjoy today's run.  Don't do anything stupid like jump off a curb or try to set a PR.  Save your best for race day.....Stay after the run and enjoy some pancakes and cup of coffee on us. Feel free to bring other breakfast items to share. Committee members  will be available to hopefully answer any final week or race day questions you may have. Landrunner gear will be available for sale so get 1st pick before the Expo.

We encourage you to share your pictures on social media and help others get motivated. Don’t forget to use #Landrunners #RuntoRemember

As always, our training is FREE and we welcome new and veteran runners alike. Invite your friends!

Key Things to Note:
NO CUPS - We will be providing water stops but there will be ZERO, NONE, ZILCH, NADA cups at the water stops again this year so bring your hydrapouch (or $5 to buy one before the run) or your own water bottle or cup to carry. DO NOT DRINK FROM THE COOLER SPIGOT!  We cannot emphasize this enough.

Running Etiquette - Remember that we are sharing the road and the trails with others. We want them to be courteous to us, so we, in turn need to be courteous and respectful and not "hog" the road or the trails. Obey all traffic signs, use the cross walks and sidewalks when available. Before our first training run we ask that everyone refresh yourself on Running Etiquette summarized in this attachment. Running Etiquette

Wave Start - We anticipate utilizing a wave start to spread out the group so please line up according to your expected pace and wait until your pace is called to begin running.

Start - First Church - We'll start from the east side of the OKC Memorial @ First Church.  Their bathrooms will be open at 6:00am.  

Courses - We will run the last 1 mile of the course and those running 10 miles will run up & down Gorilla Hill - hopefully the Gorilla will be out...

Remember - Don't show up if you are feeling sick, have tested positive for Covid-19 and still under quarantine or have been exposed and under quarantine awaiting test results. We want to put the health and safety of our runners first so keep up the safety protocols.  

Water Stops - We will have water and a sports drink approximately every 3 miles. Water stops do not stay open indefinitely. We will be closing the water stops based on a 15 minute mile pace. If you run or walk slower than a 15 minute pace or if you are running longer than the group's planned mileage, then you should start earlier or carry water as your needs dictate.

Waiver - The Landrunners cannot guarantee that you will not be exposed to COVID-19 during a group training run and will not be responsible for any potential exposure. By attending a Landrunner training run, you acknowledge and agree that you assume the inherent risks associated with attendance.  COVID-19 Attachment
