Well, almost as good as a marathon skate. This is the first ever ultramarathon on the Hennepin trail. It's a perfect route - flat, car-free, and the trees will at least help to give a break from the wind and sun to an extent (well, maybe occasionally). Scenic, and interesting. What a great flat, car-free route!

Jim, I'm the office coordinator and the Hennepin Canal visitor center. I am making a new video to show visitors when they come into the center to learn about the canal. Was wondering if we could use/include some of the wonderful pictures you have captured of the canal. Would look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!
