Emmet County Run

County Complete

This was rough for my phone. It couldn’t find a connection after a failed updated this morning. I did run for 43 minutes, So I’m sure that was at least a 5k. Heading up to my parents cabin in the UP and figured I would knock a county off on the way.

First look at the mighty Mac!
I parked in this lot for the run.
Another shot of the bridge prior to the run.
A look at Lake Michigan off a side road on my run.
Heading West!
Found the home of the Comets!
Was a fairly slow night for traffic. How nice.
After 20 minutes of running I decided to hit the beach and run back on the beach.
View of the Bridge zoomed in.
It was very rocky and a little rough of a run.
A look to the west.
Another look west.
A look east. Man those rocks were rough to run on.
Another view of the bridge on the way back.
I was imagining how expensive those views were for all the residents. I can't even imagine how much a house here would run.
Getting closer.
Another look west.
The first part of the bridge looking east.
I started this run at around 7:30pm and this was the time when I could see my car.
My car in the empty parking lot.
Back on the road and heading to the cabin on Lake Superior.
View at lake Superior about an hour later.
Great Design Plan to run the county for this website

Update: 1/13/21: So this was planned next along with Chippewa County, but here is the deal. I lost employment with a company that I had worked with for 28 years. Along with the COVID pandemic, it was made difficult to plan a trip up to the cabin… This will be a county I hit soon, but I’ve changed it over to “NOT planned next” because of the circumstances.

Thinking about going up to the Lake Superior cabin with Alex and Melody. Lisa and I visited Fort Mackinaw in the past and maybe if I ask Alex to drop me off a 5k away from the fort he and Melody could enjoy the fort; While I complete the run. Not sure that it will be open because of the COVID lockdown. Another thought is to set them up at a restaurant while I do my run. Can’t wait to spend some time with him.

This plan got pushed back a couple of weeks. It looks like this might happen mid-September now… (now it’s mid-October and this still isn’t complete.) I will try to finish this one before the end of 2020, but not sure when. I’ve had difficulties that I’m addressing currently to get back on track. Can’t wait!
