Happy New Year! Let’s ease into 2020 with a nice and easy progressive hill run. Focus on effort and not speed tonight. Enjoy the Tank Hill summit views too!
Mile 1 – flat, then a gradual climb - 100 ft elevation gain
Mile 2 – the gradual climb continues then becomes a little more challenging – 150 ft elevation gain
Mile 3 – save some gas for this one – 200 ft elevation gain. Your reward: enjoy the amazing views from atop Tank Hill
Mile 4 – This ¾ mile is mostly downhill. Enjoy!
This four miler includes park, city streets, and a very short trail diversion at Tank Hill to capture a nighttime panoramic view of the city. Unless Karl the Fog is visiting of course!
