Back to Tunxis with K2 to verify the next segment of our proposed marathon, Route 20 to Old Route 20 crossing. We managed a late start (compared to our normal routine), and it was fairly warm and humid at 2:30 p.m. when we began.
The woods were still a bit wet, as it rained again last night. The trail was in decent condition regardless, and the section measured out at 1.8-miles one-way. (Verification of Section 05 of the Granville to Satan's Kingdom Marathon from Route 20 to Old Route 20 at 1.8-miles.) This was regardless of the bad-weather bypass over the bridge, or the initial options just off Route 20. Whichever option we choose, this section will run us 1.8-miles.
Nice easy run of 3.6-miles, which was enough to keep my legs from becoming too stiff after yesterday's lengthy effort.
