I get that.

But - I also don’t get that.
Trails are FUN. Roads are boring.

Live a little people.
Broaden your horizons.

FWIW - AmZof run course is probably 70% carriage roads/10% fields/20% singletrack.

And of that 20% that’s singletrack, you’re going UP for probably 15% (the 3 big run climbs are all trails), and only flat/down for the other 5%.

So, that fear of “I’m careening thru the woods and I’m going to trip and eat it” is confined to 5% of the run course.

If the hills were paved, they’d still suck, because they are steeeeeep, not because they have rocks & roots.
Most people end up “power-hiking” parts of some or all 3 of those hills after the bike anyway.
So, who cares at that point?

Chad’s opinion is colored by my favorite personal observation of the run course:
“AmZof is where open run speed goes to die.”
