No Beach Run today so John and I headed to the Delaware & Raritan Tow Path in Princeton. We tried this two weeks ago and it was covered with 12 plus inches of snow. John drove by the trail yesterday and he thought it to be fine for an easy jog.


We stopped at Rockin Joes on Route 27 for a quick cup of coffee.
He picked me up at 8:30 and we headed to the path by Alexander Road in Princeton. There was no wind and the temps were in the low 30's. It was perfect for a winter run. We have been hit hard by snow this past month but it really hasn't been that cold. Our plan was to run 25 minutes out and pick up the pace and come back in 23 minutes.
As we headed out we came across the first of 6 trees that was laying across the trail. Lucky for us they weren't very big trees so we were able to go under or over. The footing was a bit uneven but manageable. It some spots there was just mud.
We came across just one other runner, two folks on bikes and one snowman. We ran for about 50 minutes which included a few stops for pics. It was a good run and one where I felt pretty good.
