Notes
AWESOME exploratory run with EROCK this morning! Started from his house in Beaverton and ran out to the Zoo and back. Eric planned a route for us that would take us along the new Fanno Creek Segment and through the west hills neighborhoods and on the Hwy 26 trail to the zoo. I must say it was thoroughly enjoyable and we saw some amazing houses in those neighborhoods. The new Fanno Crk. Trail segment was probably the most scenic of the whole trail as I am used to running the part near Scholls Ferry Rd. (boring) It was also neat to FINALLY be able to say I ran on the trail that parallels Hwy 26. For years I've always wondered about it and how to get to it. I only ran a little more than a mile on it but it was actually cooler than I thought it would be. We ran the segment that starts off of Camelot Ct. and goes to the Zoo Rd. Here is the Link to the MAP of the route: http://soc.li/sCUjs1E
Anyways, there was a good amount of hills and gradual uphill but nothing too hard. Had to double back in the neighborhood portion because we missed the connection to Sharon Ln. At the zoo, we got on the MAX and road it back to the Beaverton TC. From there, we ran an additional 1.45 miles back to EROCK's house. Good mileage and the body felt good. This was probably the funnest run I've been on in a long time. Really nice to have EROCK there. Hopefully we'll get this opportunity again soon!
