I ran the ParkRun for the second time last weekend. I am liking doing this. It gets me out to run regardless of the weather. You get a time to compare yourself against, and it provides some light competition to run with. If you are in the vicinity stop on by. Check their web site for details. https://www.parkrun.us/livonia/
After everyone (almost) arrives and signs the register people head to the start area.
Step One = Sign the register (at left)
Step Two = Assemble at the start area.
Step Three = Final instructions are given.
Step Four = Run! Off into the woods we go.
. . . and 3.1 miles later the finish line is crossed.
