Super fun with a great amount of up and down for a midwestern route!

Definitely think locals have an advantage due to the route finding. There are side trails constantly through all the local parks and a few of the trails on this route were fairly overgrown.

Would highly recommend keeping a navigation device at the ready. I held my phone through the whole route and was glancing down every 10ish seconds. Still ended up running past a few turns and having to backtrack.

Overall this is a great showcase of the different trail systems in A2, most of which I didn’t even know existed. Some fast local runner who does some scouting and dials in the different sections could crush this time.
