Drove to Northwest Park to complete the 2023 NWP Trail Hike Challenge.  

K2 finished last weekend, and I had three remining trials to execute to call this achieved:

  • Rainbow Reservoir Trail
  • Softwood Forest Trail
  • Conservation Trail

I completed the three trails in 5.8-miles.  It was very hot in the open areas but a bit more cool and shaded in the woods.

Spoke with Jon Evil after completion of the challenge, I believe he began his work today.


Ended up the day with a 5-hour shift at work.

Hallockville Pond Marathon
August 11th, 2005 - Hawley, Massachusetts

Today I completed my 30th marathon.  Locale was Dubuque State Forest and we named the event the "Hallockville Pond" Marathon.  

For company, I had Wuzzam being his norm good sport, and Tippi with her normal determination.  Old Farmer Tom met us along the Notch Trail on bicycle, and enjoyed a few miles with us.

This was Tippi's 4th completed marathon.  Our time ended up at 5:21:16.
