Place: The Cochran Shoals / Sope Creek location in the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. There are many loops so that we could trail run 4, 6, or 8 miles.

This park is very scenic and an enjoyable place to trail run.

This path starts off nice, soft and flat by the Chattahoochee River. As the trail gets away from the river there will be hills. I plan on starting the trail run at Cochran Shoals (Interstate North) and running the loop along the river before heading up to the Sope Creek end before looping back to the start. If you prefer trail running just on the flat trail by the river, you can do 2 laps by the river. We will run on trails on all three of the below maps:

Cochran Shoals (Interstate North)
Cochran Shoals (Columns Drive)
Sope Creek

I'll be running an easy pace of about 10:00+ minutes per mile.

**Please remember to bring $3 for parking or the annual parking pass **
