Itinerary:

Enjoy a Saturday morning trail run event starting and finishing at Cochran Shoals. This is an out and back run to Paper Mill, so don't worry about falling behind or moving ahead. Once we get to Sope Creek parking lot, we will get a drink and refill water bottles from the water fountain, and then head back to Cochran Shoals.

There are no expectations here. If you fall behind it is no big deal because we turn around at Sope Creek parking lot and go back the same way we came.

Optional: For anyone wanting to continue runnng after the event, please join us for a few laps around Cochran Shoals 3 mile loop next to the river and/or down Columns Drive and back. It's a flat course but a great way to get in additional miles.
