Track Day, w/o the track 10,14.08

Drove up to the stadium and the construction guys were tearing up the road! A massive Komatsu or some such thing was blocking the way to ANYTHING - stadium or soccer field. I ended up having to turn around, then turn on the thinking cap.

We ended up going to a local park that is very empty during the day. Unfortunately, the trails have gone to pot because no one is maintaining them. There once were wonderful cross country trails with a paracourse. The parcourse is now falling apart, there are huge trees from the last several storms blocking trails, and everything is in disrepair...except the softball fields, that must be all the parks & rec department is concerned about.

Anyhow...the workout. Distances are "guessed" because there were no markers!
