This was a fun route to run. There were several trees down on the trail, but I was still able to make it through. There isn't a lot of parking in this area, so make sure to get there a little early. There weren't many people on this trail either. Overall, I think the time for this could be reduced even further. I felt pretty good throughout and was able to run most of it. I thought I had taken a few wrong turns but made sure I stayed on the correct FKT course. I was able to reduce the FKT time by around 16 minutes. I hope more people run these trails. It was my first time out there today, and I hope to make it back.

Props on this run, Greg! Vineyard is an amazing place!
You actually missed a part of this FKT though - so the 16 minutes isn't exactly accurate.
If you notice, the original FKT poster (Jay Corman) went down blue, back up blue, then down yellow and back up blue again - then outbound via yellow. You went down blue then immediately looped to come up yellow, in essence cutting the route and cutting one climb. The original route is ridiculously dumb - as I noted in my FKT of it years back - it (just like his Allatoona Creek route) is one that makes sense only to the original poster, but that does not follow actual trail logic (it was one of the zillion routes posted during Covid).
Amazing run on the route you followed though. Its no joke out there - especially with the treefall!
