6.85 miles; Sherborn, MA Long stretch of this trail in Sherborn, and this section was certainly better than the last one, at least in terms of being almost entirely in the woods. I was, however, kind of happy it wasn’t too long, because it was soooo hot and humid. I couldn’t have gotten wetter if […]

7.15 miles; Ashland and Sherborn, MA Nothing much to recommend this section, either. Mostly road. Decidedly urban hiking with little woods sections between cul-de-sacs. Then a long walk on a busy road. Only redeeming feature? A Dunkin’ Donuts along the route. Hope this trail gets better soon… The first part of this hike was actually […]

7.92 miles; Sudbury, Southborough, and Ashland, MA The less said about this section the better. Firstly, it was beastly hot and humid. Secondly, it was partly through an Industrial park. And thirdly, REASONS (which I will not go into). But I did cross both Route 9 and the Mass Pike, so this is for sure […]

8.7 miles; Marlborough, Framingham, and Sudbury, MA Well this section couldn’t have been more different from the last one. First, there was hardly any road-walking at all… maybe 1/4 mile. I didn’t even cross a paved road till well past halfway. Also, I managed to neither over- or under-estimate the mileage. It came in at […]

10.53 miles; Sudbury and Wayland, MA Just once, ONCE, I’d like to OVERestimate the mileage on one of these sections. Although the difference between 9.8 miles and 10.53 miles isn’t as drastic as last week, it was still an underestimation. And ugh. Out of a 10.53 mile hike, 8.5 miles of this was on roads, […]

12.84 miles; Concord, Lincoln, and Wayland, MA I apologize in advance for the length of this post, but in my defense, it was a) a VERY long hike, and 2) there was so much cool stuff! I began this section where I left off last week, at the Minuteman National Monument Visitor’s Center in Concord. […]
