Chisholm Trail Parkway
Feb 27^th, 2014, 9:22pm

Run and Ride the Chisholm Trail Parkway" activities will include cycling and running activities. For runners, a half-marathon, 5K and 1 mile kids' fun run are being organized. For cyclists, bike rides of 12, 30 and 50 miles are being planned. Tentative plans include a celebration and concert in Cleburne at Buddy Stewart Park on U.S. Highway 67 at the southern end of the CTP.

It will be on May 10. The event will stage out of the new Clear Fork Park/Trailhead in the new Clear Fork Ranch development. Runners will be shuttled out 13.1 miles to the south and run back to Clear Fork while the 5K will be a loop or out and back. The bike rides all will be out & back along the new Chisholm Pkwy.

I came across the info at work after listening to a few runners talk about it. Seems like details are still being ironed out like how to keep runners and bikes separate etc.

Greg - I'm signed up. I'll take you up on starting at your house. I'll bring the F-40 so maybe I can keep up with you for a little while.

Thanks for the offer - but since the ride starts later at 10am it looks like my wife Robyn and I will be driving up early in the morning from Austin. I'm up for meeting afterwards - relaxing and having a brew for a bit.

The rest of the support vols will be on bicycles -- courtesy of Bicycles, Inc, apparently. Have fun, and be safe....
