Topic:
8.8 minutes/mile around golf course
Tonight I went for a short but fast run. I wanted to do the NCRC May trail run in Umstead, but I missed the exit and I was late so I wouldn't have made it if I had turned around.
The fast run was wonderful! It was the track around the golf course, and I did it in 25:41. The track is 2.9 miles, or 4.7 kilometers. 8.8 minutes/mile.

Never seems to amaze me how people find new uses for golf courses.

Haha, it's not on the golf course itself of course.

"The Al Buehler Cross Country Trail is a gravel running and walking course located around the perimeter of the Washington Duke Golf Course. Although not technically part of the Duke Forest, the trail is maintained by the Office of the Duke Forest as a service to the University and the Durham community."
