My Actifit Report Card: March 1 2025

It was off to Lynx Lake for a hard run through the forest on the Homestead Trail- although it is a popular hike I had the place to myself for the 6+ miles.

I started off from the Northside parking area along the relatively flat and easy paved shore path for a mile and a half before beginning a steady half mile climb up the paved exit road up to the crossing of the Homestead Trail.
From there it was another quarter mile uphill before the winding single-track began heading back along the ridges above Lynx Lake and under the tall pines.

My legs were feeling the effects of the rugged Trail and a scramble up a rocky hillside a half mile from the finish really had me slowing but I finished up strong with 10 km.
