Rock Creek Adventure

August 28, 2019 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
I met the team at Peirce Mill for our annual pre-season Rock Creek Park practice. I announced I'd be taking a group to some secret trails and instantly had about 18 kids step forward. 18 was a bit much for a narrow hilly trail, but I told them to keep spread out so they could see the town and I managed to regather us all at stream crossings, log hops, and other stopping points. I'm not telling the route her cause it's secret, but for my own future reference (in case I forget the secret), it's based on the run that my college teammate Ben Kolesar taught me. Abby and Natasha (and maybe Camilla) christened the route The Log Hopper. Actually made it back within the allotted time!
