I will be a pro at this trail.<br /><br />I did not know there were paths to run between the monuments! That sounds like it would be an awesome run.Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-72548373379024253042017-03-15T16:11:40.566-04:002017-03-15T16:11:40.566-04:00I'll go find Tuscarora with you!!

We keep saying we need to go run there, but then we chicken out because it's so steep! <br /><br />I would love to run the trails in Gettysburg, along the monuments. We were going to try it a couple of years ago, but it was a really hot day. The monuments and sites, are built to have running / walking trails in between. I also want to try hiking in Brandywine and Lehigh Valley Forge. <br /><br />Anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16110855725544210793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-17724764176978352992017-03-15T13:34:12.567-04:002017-03-15T13:34:12.567-04:00That's awesome!That's awesome!Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-83511775637486116832017-03-15T12:54:15.382-04:002017-03-15T12:54:15.382-04:00The longest hiking trail goes right through my sta...The longest hiking trail goes right through my state and I had no idea.

I love the views, but can't stand moving so slow to get there. I don't like pouring all my energy into my footing. So when I come to visit you, we're going to hit the brewery instead (I'll leave the kids at home, don't worry).

We ran 5 different trails in various areas and it was a lot of fun! We were gone ALL DAY though! None of the trails were super long and many were hiking trails rather than running but we got a good workout in. Even if these trails are short, if someone wants a longer workout they can always run it twice :)Amy Lauren Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02565049872858950707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-89422292243165239112017-03-14T10:08:00.590-04:002017-03-14T10:08:00.590-04:00Let's do it!!!Let's do it!!!Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-2477709991357657982017-03-14T09:56:24.086-04:002017-03-14T09:56:24.086-04:00I wouldnt run it with you, but Id def hike Tuscaro...I wouldnt run it with you, but Id def hike Tuscarora Trail with you!
