Run 060 - Lost in Forest Park

May 12, 2023

A few weeks ago I ran park of Forest Park, a subdivision of upscale homes with twisting streets.  That went well so today I headed out to do the remaining streets and thought I’d get a 4 mile run out of the outing.  I ended up getting a little more.  I missed a turn and, well, got lost.  I had my map and pulled my location up on my phone and still couldn’t figure out where I was or what to do next.  I headed north for a block and that didn’t make sense so I turned around and ran back the way I’d come and finally figured out that I’d missed a turn.  I got back on track and by the time I got back home it was a 4.68 miles run rather than just a 4.  No big deal but I sure was confused for a bit.

Here’s my planning map:



Seems simple, right.  Anyway, here’s some photos from along the way.







I knew I was lost when I passed this dead end a few times.






It was a good run and I did enjoy myself.  The official numbers:
