Home Trail

The New York Times has an article covering the trail near my hometown which was my daily running route for 5 summers: http://travel.nytimes.com/2009/10/23/travel/escapes/23passage.html

It kind of puts in perspective how awesome it really is. I only regularly ran on a 20 mile section of it (with two starting locations) and occasionally would bike farther, when I was recuperating from running injuries. As much as I sometimes disliked the area, the Montour Trail is one of the best things in the Pittsburgh area for runners - only about 15 minutes from my house if you do 80mph on the highway.

It's pretty eerie that something I spent so much of my life on is so widely publicized!
