Spent the morning presenting to the Connecticut Water Environment Association, CWPAA and CAWPCA 2022 Management Leadership Course.
On this day in 2006, I completed a Metacomet Marathon with my dog Tippi; it was just us.
By 2005, most of my running turned toward exploring and mapping routes through the forest of Western Massachusetts and North Central Connecticut, with an emphasis on picking out ways to connect big tracks of land, and turn them into runs of marathon length.
Tips taking a look toward the quarry in West Suffield, Connecticut.
This run began in Sunrise Park, Suffeld, Connecticut and flowed south through Penwood State Forest in Bloomfield and Simsbury, Connecticut.
We spent 6:27:00 completing a little over 28-miles or so.
This was my
31st marathon completed, and Tippi's 7th.
Notes: A great day; started out 50 degrees at the 9:45 A.M. start time. I believe it reached 70 degrees during the day, with most of it in the mid to upper 60’s. Sunny and blue sky entire time, with a bit of a nice breeze every once and a while.
Hueblin Tower in the distance; we would be turning around just prior to it.

Much of the route is a ridge trail, with weather beaten trees still standing.
