Postponed my attempt by a day due to the heat wave (originally planned to run on America’s 250th birthday). Conditions were close to ideal - overcast, not too hot, and occasional light drizzle. Trail was a nice mix of singletrack, dirt roads, and the occasional paved stretch. The trail does a great job highlighting Nantucket’s ecological diversity.

One minor wrong turn that added a few tenths of a mile but otherwise trail was generally easy to follow.

No pacers (except my 3 year old for the last 200 yards) but I got a water/gatorade/food resupply halfway through.

All in all a great day in a beautiful location.
