Ran with Keith & Randy from Longleaf. Randy only had time for 6 so he turned around at Aristida. Had a nice easy run into the park only to find that 45 minutes after we started running they still had not opened the park gate. We eventually stood around for about 20 minutes (I hate this) and waited for  everyone else. We did 5.25 out and back to give us a total of 15.5. Shirts off and soaking shoes, it feels like summer is right around the corner...

Sorry I couldn't make it out. Got in at 3:15 and ended up going for a run later in the morning.

The park opening time can be so unpredictable!
