Steve, Cathy, and Nicholas -- Steve's running log: Double loop route (created 2013-07-13) |
Double loop (about 5.1K). This is a long route that combines the medium loop route and the long loop route. I head out from my normal starting point of 148th Street near the Pavilions swimming pool. I run towards Mission Road and turn north. I run down "no brake" hill and cross to the opposite side at the bottom of the hill. Then I double back a short distance to the entrance to Ironwoods Park. I run downhill into Ironwoods Park past the children's playground. Then I head up a short hill to the north end of the park and run along a paved trail towards the eastern edge of the park. I head south but instead of heading up the very steep hill near the southwest corner of the park, I continue running along the medium loop for a bit, but then turn near the barn and head up past the cabins. It is just as much of a climb, but it is spread out over a longer distance and doesn't seem as bad. I run along the south edge of the park, continuing along the same wooded areas as the long loop. I head uphill out of Ironwoods Park, then uphill on "no brake" hill. Then I turn on 148th Street and return to my starting point.
The crosswalk on Mission Road was moved a bit further south in October 2014, so this run is now shorter by about 0.2 kilometers.
The black circle represents the most recent run.
Also note similar routes on November 5, 2011, November 12, 2011, and December 3, 2011.
