Hot take: I pick the gnarly trails every time
Most people want a nice, flat path to walk on. I think that's boring. Tried the new Lakeside Loop last month. It was all gravel and benches. Felt like a mall. So I ducked into an old deer track nearby. Had to hop over creek beds. Got my pants dirty from the mud. Spotted an owl in a dead tree. That's the stuff I remember.

Flat trails let me zone out and relax, which is kinda the point for me.

Ever get bored on those long flat parts? I started putting on a podcast or an album I know really well, lets my brain check out but keeps a little thread of something interesting going. Did a 10-mile bike path last week with a true crime series, time just flew by.
