The bridge is finished and folks are already using it! Those eagle scouts and their advisers really got this bridge done fast. It even has side rails, what ever those are used for! Come on across, girl, it's plenty safe now!
This other pic is of some running dudes that were cruising around the route. Jack, BJ, or was the JB, and Shawn? I really don't remember names but they were making the Hudson's field loop in this photo. Two of them are planning to run the Farmdale race in October and one is heading for the Chicago Marathon. Awesome!
One negative thing I need to bring up on trail conditions - the red markings are no longer dependable. Some loose cannon, self proclaimed trail maintainer has added red paint to just about every trail out there. Those markings are very well done and look like the rest of the red markers. Red was once reserved for a 7.5 mile trail that was put in many years ago by the scouts. They called it the Potawatomie Trail. Now, you just about have to know the race loop to get it right. We've lost that long time reliance on that great old trail. Stupid people annoy me. Guess you need to come take the guided tour on November 1 with us - at least three folks have indicated they will run with the locals that day.
