    Usually about 3 hrs. couple of stops along the way.. group breaks up, but will gather back up at Schabarum park.. Mileage, about 20 miles.. Pace, Moderate! Not race pace, but, not a crawl either.. The pack usually breaks into a few small groups, so, you will usually have someone to keep you company...

    as 7am...

    Keep it quite though as folks are still sleeping and the neighbors could get us kicked out of there. They also complain about people changing their clothes out in front of their homes.
