I am still working on completing the Appalachian Trail in Connecticut, and today I would connect to last week's end point on the Housatonic River Walk section.
I parked on Route 341 in Kent, and worked north over Fuller Mountain, Caleb's Peak and the St. John Ledges, before turning around and returning to my vehicle. Completed 9.9-miles, and managed an early enough start to be finished by 11:00 a.m., before it really got hot today.

Also, on this day in 2008, I completed the Hallockville Pond - Mt Institute Marathon with Wuzzam and Tippi. The 25+ miles were completed in 5:29:07, and we ended the day with a dip in Hallockville Pond. This was my 38th completed marathon, and Tippi's 12th.
