December Handicap
Saturday, 12/05/2009 8:30AM
Academy Hills Park
The December Handicap will be a two-person relay
at Academy Hills Park. Teams will be handicapped
by the sum of the projected 5K times of the team
members. The course is fairly well-known and easy
to follow, but we'll clarify any confusing spots
with flour and/or cones. The loop is just under 1
mile. Each leg will start and finish at the
southwest corner of the park, near the
intersection of Layton and Concordia. Runners
will proceed in a clockwise direction. In the
past, this handicap has been a total of 6 1-mile
legs (3 per person) for an approximate total of 6
miles. However, this race will be a total of 7
legs. Runners will alternate legs. One runner
will run 4 legs (first and last), and the other
runner will run 3 legs. Why the heck would we do
7 legs instead of 6? Just to be different.
From Albuquerque Academy or Hoffmantown Church,
head south on Ventura. Ventura becomes Layton at
Academy. Academy Hills Park is on the left hand
side after approximately 1/2 mile. If you turn
left on Concordia Rd, there should be ample
parking and a short walk to the race start.
A potluck at Shannon and Ed Zanelli's house will
follow.
