Are you a runner or a jogger?  I don’t know the difference but the River Mountains Loop Trail is a great place to do both.  When I’m walking the trail I see a fair amount of joggers/runners using the trail.  I know that several local track clubs use the trail for races and practice runs.  We have marathon events all through the year using various portions of the trail for 5-K and 10-k runs.  I believe there is something for everyone’s running tastes on the 35-mile loop be it hills, flat land, curves or great views.  

If you haven’t discovered the trail yet give a try soon.  There are locations and times which get heavy use, but there is 35-miles to spread out over so give it a run. 

Events on the RMLT: 

• Silverman triathlon – 5th year 2009
• Pumpkinman triathlon – 4th year 2009
• Calico Racing 5K-10K various runs
• Iron Girl marathon – 2nd year 2009
• Others…
