Peter De Mott Peace Trot

Practice Runs on Tuesdays @ 5:15

The "First" day of Spring wasn't really the first day of Spring.  Nonetheless, three of us, Blake, Oona and Tom, got out there and ran part of the Peace Trot course.  That is, we ran most of the roadway, because the rest of the route is still buried in snow.  It was really surprising how little the snow has melted in that little microclimate of the Arboretum.  Here is a little something that will cheer you up.  We ran "most of the roadway" because that little steep hill near the end of the road race course was coated with 3-4 inches of ice.  And we couldn't run up it even if we wanted to!  Running outside in the early "Spring" does have its challenges, which can be the subject for a longer reflection.

But we did keep running and have decided on Tuesdays from now until the Peace Trot, starting March 24, 5:15pm.  If the Arboretum roadway is closed to traffic as it was on Friday, we will meet at the Forest Home Drive parking area along the creek at the bottom of the Arboretum across from the greenhouses.
