****Who are we?***
Wednesday's Children (WC-ers) is an informal running group that gathers
at 7am every Wednesday morning for a loop run around the campus of the Rochester
Institute of Technology (RIT). The runs usually vary from 2 to 9 miles, and
the paces vary from a 6:30 per mile pace to a 12:30 per mile pace. The group
has coffee and bites afterwards at the RIT CROSSROADS RESTAURANT located close
to the finish near S LOT.
****Where are we?
Wednesday's Children start from the north end of the S LOT parking area (west
side of campus). See map of RIT.

*****What special runs do we take?
IN SUMMER?
For the past three years, we have managed to have at least one group run along
the beautiful Genesee Valley Greenway Trail.
Starting at the Trail's entrance in Canawaugus Park in Scottsville, we run south
for 3 to 5 miles (somewhere between 30 and 60 minutes), and then repair to the
Scottsville Diner, home of the best, most inexpensive breakfast in the local
Genesee Valley area. For pictures, click here.
IN WINTER?
Well, the route is not special, but the environment changes so much that it
seems like a special run. Bites and beverages after at IHOP (The normal "biting"
place, RIT's Crossroad's Restaurant, was closed.) For pictures of what it can
be like, click here.
IN FALL?
For the first time in fall, in 2002,we traipsed along a route that was definately
special--a 10K trail run at Mendon Ponds led by Robb "Rocket" Adams.
No pictures, sorry, but a very challenging dirt course thick with wet leaves
and littered with numerous uphills, downhills, tree roots, and rocks. It's the
same route that features in the GV Harriers Mendon Ponds fall distance runs.
Bites and beverages after at the "Mega Weg" in Pittsford Plaza.
IN SPRING?
