UVRC runners were out there exploring the region this last month and it has been fun to read their reports at the end of each weekend!  Below are report and comments that people posted, plus photographs they shared.

"Around the home waters. It packs hills, flats, woods and Canaan St. in 4.6 miles." - Rob D.

"I did basically the same loop as last week, but my normal direction! I threw in a variation of the TNT workout, which I missed. This was a replacement for a run around Goose Pond and home after a family Moose Ridge hike. Forgot my road shoes and decided to bag the 20- miler plan. Glad I did. My legs are cooked!" - Joffrey

"Occom Pond" - Geoff

"Occom :)" - Laura

"Ran the Shaker 7 course, but starting at the bridge. Plus a bit. Beautiful day to run next to a lake!" - Tim

"Boston Lot!" - Chris

"Also Boston Lot" - Sara

Alex - "I ran across the Hyde Covered Bridge in Randolph. I had planned this run before Tim and I had decided the challenge for the week. I was lucky that it was a perfect fit (I have a pretty good backup, the Union Village Covered Bridge is about 200 ft from my house). I did cross the river once more for a total of 2 bridge crossings." - Alex

"25 bridge crossings on this route" - Geoff

"I ran across the Moore Lane little bridge across the Huntley Meadows creek on my Dutton Hill run" - Laura

"A dozen bridges W.Leb & WRJ - or more, depending upon how I count!" - Tim

"I counted running over or under 13 different bridges. There were a bunch more culverts and stream crossings I didn't counts as well!" - Joffrey

"Thank you for the inspiration. I never spent time counting the bridges I cross :-) Only 8-9 bridge crossings between the start and my finish at Lou's for brunch including Ledyard. Like Laura, I hopped over the Moore Lane bridge too! Does the bridge between the Hood museum and the HOP count?" - Madeleine

"OK maybe not the biggest bridge span in the UV" - Rob

"9 bridges in my modified CBHM" - Ryan

"While running on the Greenway I found an old structure somewhat resembling a hunting blind but connected to old railroad equipment. I've yet to determine what it was. I didn't have a camera/phone with me but will take a picture of the structure soon!" - Hannah

"I found a red trillium in Mink Brook!" - Nancy

"Old Bridges and Cellar Holes. Cook's Bridge (off go Buzzell Bridge Rd.) and maybe(?) a mill house from Rice's Mill." - Tim

"I explored a similar area to Tim and had a photo journal of the run. Its some of my favorite sites about the Union Village dam and its history. I had a few more photos I wanted to snap but unfortunately it was just too hot to continue." - Alex

"Beaver Meadow Rd, Bragg Hill / Sound of Music Beautiful Morning Run!" - Tim

"I feel like I run up and down hills most days now but I used this challenge to detour on my run into town to run up Douglas Hill in Norwich for the first time. I usually run down this hill and although it’s steep, it’s fairly short. Thank you again for the inspiration!" - Madeleine

"I got in a couple of miles up the Enfield side of Ruddsboro (and then a lot more)" - Joffrey
