Driving Advisory: Sunday Reservoir Run

Expect a few delays on some Weston roads on Sunday morning the 23rd as hundreds of runners compete in the annual Kiwanis Reservoir Run Half Marathon and 5K, which start and finish at Weston High School.

Weston Police will be out to make sure everyone stays safe.

The 5K starts on Sunday morning at 8:30 at Weston High School, taking runners up School Road to Lords Highway, to Old Hyde Road, to Norfield Road, to Weston Road (Route 57), then back to the high school.

The half marathon kicks off at the high school at 8:40. For about 15 minutes a surge of runners at the beginning may make for slow going up Newtown Turnpike from Lords Highway.

This race is a 13-mile-plus loop up Newtown Turnpike to Valley Forge Road, down to Lyons Plain Road, to River Road, to Good Hill Road, then up Weston Road to finish at the high school.

While no road closures are expected, at various locations you may see traffic cones on the right, forming a lane of sorts for runners. Particularly during the half marathon, you will probably see a police officer directing traffic and runners at the corner of Norfield and Weston Roads.
