It was going to be cold, and windy, but I had confirmed company for a long run along the Nipmuck Trail. Wuzzam met me at the Mansfield Hollow Dam (I believe that is what it is called). We ran out to the "split" just past 50-foot, and ventured south again towards Puddle Lane.
During the run, we saw two really delightful sites; Schoolhouse Brook was really scenic - I planned to take a few photographs on the return, but the trail extended so much further south that we didn't come back the same way. Secondly, we ran in the Joshua Trust "Wolf Rock" Preserve, and Wolf Rock is a beautifully balanced rock as awesome as any.
Despite the low twenty-degrees, it wasn't ever cold for us, and we rambled through the trails for a meaningful 11.5-miles.
