The Yellowstone Rim Runners did the usual 3rd Wednesday night run from Canyon Creek Brewery and it gave me the opportunity to run some streets in the commercial/retail area south of King Avenue, south of Costco. This is a really busy area and the route I planned meant running a bit on King which is one of the busiest streets in the city.
I didn’t have to go alone as Shelley, Martina, and Brad were happy to go along and make sure that Brad and I didn’t lollygag. Here’s my planning map.
Rain was predicted and we only saw a few drops but had some beautiful skies as a backdrop to the scenery. Our first scenic point of interest is the sink hole on Gabel Road. The occurred a few weeks ago during some heavy rain. It looks like it must have been encouraged by the culvert that runs under the road there.
We wound our way around the backstreets behind Costco and saw some young geese hanging out near on of the many ponds in the area.
We finished up that area and started our run back. We saw that there is some progress on the new hotel/convention center that we think has been underway for several years on a site that used to be a movie theater.
Into the sun…
A long sidewalk ahead.
Here are the results from my Garmin watch. I don’t know why it got the first part of the run so wrong.
