Long Run at the park.  Went an hour early and ran 2 loops of trail 10 before everybody else arrived.  Group run on trails - Ogle Lake loop included.  Group ran about an hour.  I continued on for another 2 hrs., joining in with another group out at the park - IN Trail Runners (ITR)  8 hours of trail loop running set up for them.  Pretty cool - they went all out - 2 aid stations and we'll marked 8 mile loop.  People I ran with were all friendly, too.  ITR.org

23.5 miles trails with some good climbing - 4 hours.
