I’ll be in Auburn, NY for 2 nights. I found a few 5mi loops on mapmyrun. Any route more preferred than another? Any runs near the lake? Anything else not to miss? I don’t expect to be in for the time of my life while there, but hope I don’t have to eat dinner at Arby’s.
Thanks In Advance.
I’m about 20-30 miles from there. I can’t comment on Auburn specific runs, the mapmyrun runs should give you a good idea. If you can get on a bike I’d encourage you to ride in the area, lots of good riding, scenic, good surfaces, good hills. Go to Onondagacycling.org for some good ride routes (as well as what you saw on mapmyruns). Loop Skaneatleles Lake for a nice 40-50 miler. Owasco is about 40 also.
For eats go to Skaneateles - 5 miles from Auburn, Sherwood Inn will work as will a couple others, stop in to Moriss’ Grill for a beer with the locals if you want some local flavor. Skaneateles is a village & everything is walking distance, right on the lake.
What days you gonna be there- there’s a 3 day race weekend this weekend in Skaneateles- sprint tri on Sat, open water swim Sun, 5k Monday (see skanraces.com).
