Itinerary:

 

Enjoy an early crisp morning sunrise trail run starting and finishing at Cochran Shoals, next to the river.  This 6 AM event is an out & back trail run to Paper Mill with plenty of ups & down hills.  This trail run is meant to be fun and enjoyable,  so don't worry about falling behind, moving ahead, or running the entire distance. 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.
