This Saturday, May 6, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Sleeping Giant State Park, 200 Mt Carmel Ave, Hamden, CT 06518, for up to 10 miles of hills, trails, rocks, and one very cool castle. There is a $15 day-use fee for out-of-state cars so if you want to rideshare, meet at Lewisboro Town Park lower lot at 7:00 a.m. This time we’ll run the course so that we go up the exposed western face rather than down it as we did last time (some of you know what I’m talking about). Bring a change of clothes and some cash since with all that running, you’ll work up an appetite. We’ll over to Pepe’s Pizza afterwards, home of what is arguably the best pizza in the country.
