Local Trail Makes for Long Piece of Fitness Equipment |

I was pleasantly surprised last night after heading out the front door of our apartment complex and into the nearby neighborhood to find a long bike and jogging trail. From what I got from one of the plaques along the way, this trail was part of a big urban development project to better the community. Once railroad tracks now the smooth concrete goes for miles and miles through three different cities. I just scratched the surface last night. There is no way I could jog to the end without seriously improving my endurance. Even then running over 10 miles is pretty insane. I’m pumped to get on a bike and ride it to the end. As it runs through neighborhoods, it also goes by assorted restaurants and businesses.
Seeing the area from the foot level really highlights what is around. As far as fitness equipment goes it doesn’t get much better then a nice, well traveled jogging trail. It will lend a hand to weight loss and minor bodybuilding. Now I have no excuse not to run.
