Full Show - Columbus, OH Top Trails
Published by
In Episode 5 Season 3 of Hoka One One Top Trails, we visit Columbus, OH. A few short years ago, Columbus really didn’t offer much in the way of single-track running trails. This all changed when Columbus’ strong community of passionate runners had been participating in trail races across the country and decided that Columbus needed a trail to call its own. The Rocks and Roots Trail at Alum Creek was born- built by runners, for runners. Jeff Henderson (Manager, Fleet Feet Columbus) and Ryan Moran (VP Rocks and Roots Trail Runners Association) tell us about some of the early discussions, and what it took to build single-track trails meandering through the woods, over creeks, and along the Alum Creek Lakefront. They currently have about 13 miles of purpose-built trail constructed, but could eventually see as much as 50 miles of connected trail-system in the area.
