Rockefeller State Park Run & After

After a few bridges and getting lost in Subaruville (Pleasantville, NY) we finally arrived at our destination- the starting point/parking lot ($6 fee) of the Rockerfeller State Park running trail. Our warm-up was a lap around the pond which was about a mile or so.

The rest of the trail, which was the prominent feature of it, was the miles of carriage dirt/stone trail. A few hills tucked in besides its path within some private property but which you're still allowed to run. Picture to the right is an unbeaten path which attaches part of the trail section, but it's nothing more than pieces of open land. We tried to find some technical trails, but unfortunately this park doesn't offer that kind of terrain.

The Afterward-

Always a nice addition to the after run refuel- our go to craft beer selection at the moment- The Nugget Nectar. With that kind of name, you're expecting a happy ending, and it delivers just that.
