SOUTHBOUND. Ideally done in Spring or Fall when Catamount is mowed or it would be a nightmare for that stretch. Also is the most difficult part to navigate. Perfect conditions on the day but being one of the 1st 'warmer' days of the year the temp did get to me a bit. Legs were really tired by the 1/2 way point. Just tried to avoid any 'non-moving' time, which helped. I live nearby and have done pieces of this route several times as well as the entirety of the route a few times before today so navigation wasn't an issue. Great route with difficult footing. Only a few good places to run quickly especially after a few big climbs.

- if anyone needs a ride from one end to the other I would be glad help out. Just contact me through a strava post
