Cross Country and Track
the nor run is also known as the nazi run because of all the white pride graffiti under the bridges. despite the distasteful artwork, this is a nice run that heads east on the bike path, then crosses the river where the nor baseball field is. then runs on dirt trails (on the west side of the river) to 24th street. the whole run is about 3.5 miles.
