It’s not just about the beauty. It’s about the fact that YOU….a runner with a hip replacement…..still get to experience it. Thanks for the great post!

I don’t have the elevation changes you have, but I know from my bridge runs how tiring they can be so congratulations on your great achievement. Dave
