Trail: Merrill Park
How one can run or walk a few minutes from one’s house in the city and find oneself in the woods in a matter of minutes still amazes me. Born and bred city girl, I’m accustomed to a few KM’s drive in Manila before finding proper running ground good for trail running. “Nature” was always a day trip and more often not easily accessible. Here in America it feels like everything is within a short drive’s reach.
We got to explore a bit of Merrill Park in Woodbridge, New Jersey for a mix of morning trail and road running.

Only run with people you can go crazy with!
