There is this classic 11.2 mile loop through a state park just 3 miles from me that I have never done so I did it today. I usually run the trails in the same park, but I wanted to see what this road loop was like because all of the runners around here talk about it. It was very nice or at least much nicer than any other road running I could imagine with very few cars through forests with a few vistas along the way. It was very hilly, and I tried to take it easy, but I did it in 1:26:27 (7:51 pace) so not too bad, but probably too fast for the kind of hills this place has. |
