Arbuckle Park 7/26 - 8/1

The Summer Fun Run Series takes us to Arbuckle Park in Brownsburg, Indiana.   This year's route is the 1 mile loop in the back of Arbuckle Park.  The start/finish for this week's route is just down the hill on Lower Road at the first pedestrian bridge crossing the creek.  This week's route may only be one mile, but don't interpret that as easy.  There is a gnarly elevation change midway through that will help ensure you reach your fitness goals for the week!
