Hey Everyone, I would like to attempt this FKT around February 23 or February 24, depending on when kids have soccer games and swimming.  I hope some people will come out and join me.  Thank you so much.

 

My email is: mwardian@rocketmail.com.  Cheers,Mike

I am planning to run the W&OD unsupported in the proper direction, from MM 0 in Shirlington to Purcellville. Perhaps it will be an FKT.

Hello all!

I’m going to attempt the W&OD unsupported FKT on 12/30/19 starting in the morning from Purcellville and ending in Shirlington.  12/30 is my 40th birthday so this is my present to myself😁👍🏻!

My email is mjcarter79@gmail.com and I will post results on Strava on top of live tracking via Gaia or Garmin.   

Merry Christmas and thank you!!

 

Due to thunderstorms, this run will be moved to Tuesday, 12/31.
