April 26, 2008


My people took me to another local park this weekend, Farmdale. This is a really cool place with all kinds of deer and squirrels that need re-arranged. Just like McNaughton, it has grass, trees, hills, water and plenty of room to run. They even have a trail race here in October. http://www.farmdaletrailrun.com/index.php - check it out.

As you can see, there is some flat running here along the pines. Most of the really steep hills didn't seem to have trails on them and wouldn't you know, my people didn't stay on the trails much this time out. It's a good break from McNaughton but expect me back there soon - it takes too long to get to Farmdale!

Glad you had fun at Farmdale, T.C. ! Yes, it looks quite flat compared to your favorite trotting grounds at McNP.

erietom, have you checked out the link for the Farmdale race? They have an ultra marathon distance. While the verticals are not a severe, they do exists.
