On Saturday, January 3, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Michigan Road Lot, ready to run a classic—The Blue Moon Loop. This course, courtesy of one of the Loop founders, Dave Cope, has the option to revive an old trail below the Leatherman’s Cave that is on the old Stroller’s Map but absent from more recent ones. We’ll be running the course in a counterclockwise direction, with the arrows. Depending on trail conditions, you have options for different distances. Early Risers start at 6:00.
