Description

Running near the Panama Canal from the Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean is believed to be the fastest possible route to cross any continent on foot (The Suez Canal in Africa is over twice as long). The Trans-Continent FKT may follow any route across Panama as long as you start at one ocean and finish at the other. The only "rule" is that you must start/finish at a point that is clearly the sea/ocean and not an inlet body of water such as the Bahia las Minas (Bay of the Mines).

The classic training loop up and down Mt. Sunapee. Park at the base lodge and take the Summit Trail to the summit, admire the view and follow the access road back down (also called Williamson trail -- backcountry ski trail in winter), you will reach a landing near the campground, continue following the access road down, then take a left and crush the entrance road back to the parking lot. 
There are a few types of people who prefer running this in reverse, which is also fine and we don't judge.
5+mi, 1500+ft gain.
