On The Shady Side Of The Creek, Walk Report, Flying Pig Virtual 5K, Irondale Furnace Trail

Fit To Ride

Awareness of the outside world. Tri-State Running Company was the presenting sponsor of the virtual 5K. From their website, they appear to be the sort of fixture of the local running community that is interesting in actually getting people running, as well as selling shoes. Shop local. Shop local that cares.

The Walk

Was able to knock out the distance without having done much walking recently. I’ve suspected that I have a 5K walk in my back pocket. Good to know.

Last year [The Strolling Pigventure]

The Park

Since it was summer, I chose a trail with shade.

Bham Wiki: Cahaba Iron Works

Trail in ritzy section of Bham. Houses to the right have scenic view from the hillside. Houses to the left have large back lawns running down to the creek. None of them cheap, I suspect.
