Centennial Park
Weekend Mornings

Columbia, MD

One morning per weekend my brother and I meet for a 2.4 mile jog around the lake. He brings one of the kids and the baby-jogger, and I come equipped with one of the pooches.

Note: the arrows mark a 5k route, but we stay on the paths hugging the lake, which shortens the distance to 2.4 miles.
