My Run Billings Project: Run 120 - Some Straight Roads

September 25, 2023

A beautiful and crisp morning here in Montana and hints of fall are all around. I usually do a 4-miler on Mondays but there were these boring streets that were leftover from other runs that needed to be done so today was the day.

Heading south on Zimmerman by the gold course.

I turned west on Broadwater.

I turned in to Heritage Circle but first had to do an out-and-back on Custer. For some reason, it’s not paved.

Heritage Circle is, well, a circle, but with a few dead ends.

Heritage Park.

I’ve noticed that almost every cul-de-sac has a fire hydrant at the end. This one didn’t and then I noticed this. Hmmm, looks like a cistern so they are probably not on city water.

A mega-church went up in these folk’s backyard, blocking their western sun.

This dead end had a fire hydrant.

Back on Broadwater past a cornfield.

On Shilo where apartments are above retail shops.

I saw the other side of this park on a run last week.

Harvest done.

The pedestrian tunnel under Shilo just south of Grand. This eliminates having to cross at the roundabout.

Grand and Zimmerman.

I got back to where I started but I had noticed on my master map that Golden Ave. between Avenue E and Grand wasn’t marked as having been run. I thought I must have but decided to go over and look. Nope, I don’t remember doing this end of the street so I went ahead and did it. All it did was add some mileage.
