The start and finish were at the middle of the Saville Dam, in front of the iconic structure. I stayed on the inner-most public roads, running counter-clockwise: Saville Dam Rd to E. Hartland Rd to South Rd, N. Hollow Rd, Morrison Hill Rd, Center St, Center Hill Rd, Boettner Rd, Center Hill Rd, Beach Rock Rd, and back to Saville Dam Rd.

Measured distance was 22.28 miles.

I carried two 600 ml flasks with water and Liquid IV, one packet of Honey Stinger Energy Chews and one Untapped Maple Syrup packet.

It was around 40 degrees F, windy, and there were periods of rain, granular snow, powder snow, and sunshine. There was not enough snow to accumulate, but the granular snow in the wind made it uncomfortable.

The hills here are unrelenting, making it a great long-hill workout route!
