(Near the starting point.)
Well, I have to say… that was a rather interesting (and sometimes strange) 5k. M and I, in our quest to better know the area in which we live (filed under “local tourists”), decided to take a 5.1 mile hike at Portage Lakes State Park. We have driven past it on the highway numerous times, always with one of us remarking, “We ought to go hiking there sometime.”
I guess we can check that one off of our list.
(Note: We were hiking a 5k as participants in Automattic’s Worldwide WP 5k.)
