“Loving Island Life” Trail Running on Bainbridge Island
Oh my! Can it really be the end of April already? Those of us at “Loving Island Life” hope you are able to get outside to enjoy the warmer weather and the longer days of spring.
Trail Running on Bainbridge Island
If you are feeling particularly energetic, why not discover one of the beautifully maintained trails that Bainbridge Island is known for. The American Trail Running Association (ATRA) has featured Bainbridge Island in its new “Trail Town” series. Here is a quote from the article:
“A great trail town has to start with a great trail network. Trails must be well marked with maps available online with a bonus to towns with a variety of trails of distance and type. With approximately 33 miles of trails in an area the size of Manhattan (New York City), Bainbridge Island’s goal according to Bainbridge Island Metro Park and Recreation District Senior Parks Manager David Harry, “To be able to move around the island off road. This serves a two-fold purpose; it gets people out recreating and provides additional transportation corridors.” All of the trails are non-motorized and allow equestrians, mountain bikes, foot traffic, and leashed pets unless otherwise noted on trail signage.”
The article has many more reasons for trail runners to love Bainbridge Island, and you can read all about it here . Don’t be surprised if you see Sonja and Maxx out kicking up a little dust, they both love running on our island trails!
