8-miles in a light rain in Granville.
And on this day...
Appalachian Trail from Old Adams Road (parked at Jones Nose) to Rockwell Road for a total of 7.5-miles, with roughly 3 of it on the actual AT.
This places me with 49.2-miles from the Connecticut / Massachusetts border at Sages Ravine to County Road in (I think) Becket, and another 7.7-miles from downtown Cheshire to Rockwell Road in Williamstown, totaling 56.9 of 90.4 Appalachian Trail Miles in Massachusetts!
Visited my folks after, rewarding them again with Mrs. Murphy's donuts.
Another trip to the Appalachian Trail in Massachusetts, this time from Route 20 to County Road, including the Towns of Becket, Lee, and Washington.
Spent the morning at the Walk-In Clinic for my wrist, hand, thumb injury from the dog attack last Tuesday. X-Rays show no fracture - placed in a splint for two-weeks for the tendons to heal.
Later on, just before dinner time, I was back to the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail, in Suffield and East Granby this time, totaling 3.4-miles.
Back to the Appalachian Trail in Massachusetts. Began at my last stopping point, Goose Pond Road in Otis (I think) and covered ground to Route 20 (including the AT Bridge over the Mass Pike).
Ended with 9.3-miles on a fantastic day.
After 13.5 hours at work (2:00 a.m. through 3:30 p.m.) I managed a 3.4-mile run around the Bridge-Main-Kent-Wisteria-Dylan-Bridge loop, with the short trail/field section between Wisteria and Dylan now totally churned up for development.
