Route Statistics
Description: Mostly University Woods trails; this route is ~5miles. Start at the U. Woods trail entrance, behind the field house. take first right, over bridge, go right until trail opens up to the sports fields. Then, turna around, before the transition to aports fields, and go right, deeper into U. Woods. At the intersection, go directly across, and take next left, down to the river. Go rt. at river, follow to bridge, and cross. Go right after crossing the bridge. Then, follow river until the option to go left presents itself (narrow trails). Continue. You ought to see a sign saying, "You are no leaving Univ. property." Keep going and bear right when a trail leads to a big, open field on right. cross the field (very narrow trail), and continue to left on dirt road. Take next left on dirt road. Dirt rd. ends at a newer res. neighborhood. Go right to Mill rd., then follow Mill rd to left until the next U. Woods trail openin, opens up. Follow that all the way to the dam. Or, go past the dam until the trail abruptly ends, turn around, and end at the dam. Although Runmyroute does not show each trail, my route ought to be identifiable. I think it's longer than 4.5 miles because I finished a 5mi race, last week, in 33 mins. I finished this route in 40 mins at a heavy jogging pace. Expect tree routes, a rocky dirt road, pavement (Mill rd.).
