Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

Join me as we light up the trails with a trail run mixed in with very minimal fast hiking. There are no formal stops planned but, if needed, we can wait a bit at intersection.  I hope to keep the pace of this run between 10-11 minute miles for 6+ miles.

This is an exploratory trail run. Although I have run this trail many times with George, I can't say I know the trails like the back of my hand. I plan to kind of make it up as I go.  If that is a problem for you, then this specific trail run isn't for you.

This is a Rain or Shine...althought I prefer the latter. If the rain is a little intense, we may move this event to Roswell Area Park and do the run there.
