Presque Isle County Run

County Complete
I've seen these in the past and never took a picture. I decided today I would.
Even though I'm again running around a lake, I'm far from this lake (Tomahawk Lake). Here I am at the far east of this route.
A look into the woods at this point in the run. Alway fun to explore visually.
There will be many types of shots because this is what most of the run looked like. I was passed by off-road vehicles, several, and saw more at the gas station and between here and there.
Long straight aways!
Even more straight aways on the south side of the lake.
Then the trail started to get choppy, and this was when it started getting interesting.
My first glimpse of Tomahawk Lake.
Even better look.
I had to get off the trail to get this close to the lake, but I was delighted. No houses, just a lake.
Same place just looking at the middle section of the lake (facing north).
I took this final photo, again same spot looking east.
This photo above is what showed on Strava. The road I'm running on comes to an end. But Strava had done this to me before and showed no roads where there are roads. I used "mapmyrun" for the map at the bottom of the page here. There is a road there.
Still I can't say I wasn't worried.
But sure enough, there was a road that looked like this on the east side of the lake.
I could see the lake on the east side, looking west.
Not only that, but there was a boat launch on this unmarked road.
When I turned the corner at the north side of the lake, it was getting very dark in the sky. I might get soaked by the time I made it to the car.
But it was dry most of the way on the north end.
I could somewhat still see the lake at times.
Here is one last shot of Tomahawk Lake on the northwest side. I remember starting this run and thinking to myself, " I should do this 5k quicker than the last one I did about an hour ago" because that one was SLOW! Well, this one was even slower, and I'd like to blame the times when I stopped for the pictures, but honestly, I'm just getting slower. Maybe I should make my next county-run goal to be a bit faster.
5k finished, but I still had a quarter mile to walk to the car, then the rain hit, but not bad.
Great Design Plan to run the county for this website

Presque Isle County was my second 5k of the day. I planned it on the west side of the county to check two counties off in one day. There are many very cool places on the Lake Huron east side of the county, and Lisa and I will have to visit there someday. You will notice in the second photo roads are going all the way around this lake. However, Strava didn’t show the roads on the North end of the lake.
