This wasn't a run, per se, but I did go back to the dirt road with DH this morning, as it was threatening rain and not good weather for cycling. I wore my rain jacket and it didn't do more than sprinkle to a light rain just when we were getting back. We walked and took the road up where I had stopped; as I thought, it was rutted, sandy, and very rocky in spots. Not what I would do on a road bike. But, it did come out where I thought. On the way in, we noticed 3 trailheads for town conservation land trails, so we took one on the way back. Another goes up a nice hill and goes on for a while, as we surmised by looking at a map on DH's phone. As we headed back on the dirt road, a woman (whom I had seen on Friday, came whizzing by on a mountain bike. I had seen her and a guy on Friday, and also on the path by my house). Saw some interesting birds and geese, a waterfall, and some interesting homes. When we got back, we downloaded the trail map for the area, which used to be a rifle range up until the 50s. So, this will be a good area for snow shoeing come winter. I thought maybe there was a trail on the other side of the dirt road that connected up to the top of the hill near where I walk to get my gym, but the land is owned by the sportsman's club where there is a bridge that crosses a pond and it's posted (thank you Google).
Interesting, and a different little corner of my town that I had no idea of. Good for running, trail running, snow shoeing, hiking, and maybe a mountain bike?
