Difficulty and terrain

Moderate. Flat profile, but 13.1 km of concentration on the line. Expect the distance, not the climb, to be the limiting factor.

Surface: Smooth park roads, crushed gravel in forest sections, and broad bike-path asphalt.

Safety: Use lit loops after dark; canal paths can be dim in winter evenings.

Best months: April to June and September for stable conditions and race-friendly temperatures.

How to run this shape

Download the GPX file with your subscription and load it onto your watch, or open it in the ShapeMiles app.
Start anywhere on the loop — beginning near a landmark makes the finish easier to find.
Keep GPS recording continuous. Pausing mid-run leaves straight lines that cut across the drawing.
Follow the corners precisely; short detours are what blur the shape.
Upload to Strava and the bunny appears on your activity map.
