Camden Hills Run Running trails and good food were the goals for this weekend’s long run. Camden was the obvious choice. Camden is the quintessential cute Maine coastal town, with excellent restaurants, many nice shops, bordered by rugged hills with lots of trails. Being a pretty mild fall I planned a 9 mile run with about 4 miles on the road. My friend and frequent running partner, Amy, was game for a little adventure and came along. There were some flurries when we left town and amazingly by the time we got to Rockport it was snowing hard with about 1.5” accumulated & the roads starting to get slippery. Crap. (Yes, I checked the weather!) Once in downtown Camden the snow just wasn’t accumulating as much. Phew. The plan was to go up Battie then up and along Mt Megunticook to eventually Maiden Cliff then down to Rt 52 back to Camden. The trail up Battie is wicked steep so was basically a hike. We ran down the access road to Tablelands trail. Ran that a bit then, due to really wanting to run versus hike, we took the Jack Williams trail instead of going up along Mt Megunticook. The Williams trail was very runable but still a slippery snowy, rooty, muddy, wet rock run. The Maiden Cliff trail was slow & rough then we hit Rt 52 & felt like flying after slogging slowly on the trails. The post run meal was at the Camden Deli. Best lunch view around & a great sandwich.
