I've been taking a shortcut without even knowing it. I discovered the real starting line for the trail today was about a tenth of a mile farther than where I had assumed it was. It was clearly marked. I had just never bothered to look for it. Now I know.
Jogged to the 2 mile marker and back in 47:11.05. Next time I won't stop to read the little info boards which will automatically improve my time. Averaging about 5:20 - 5:40 per half mile so about a 12 minute mile.
Walked to my daughter's new school. It took about 30 minutes to stroll there so we'll call it a mile there.
