Distance Calculator:

This page is to help plan training runs on the All Purpose Trail (APT) in Rocky River/Mill Stream Reservation. Click on the locations where your run will start and end, and the calculator will display the distance between those 2 points, both one-way and round trip.

Landmarks were measured to their centers (middle of the bridge, intersection, etc.) as much as possible. I've included some info on possible amenities—note that latrines and particularly water may not be available year-round.

The calculator defaults to starting/ending at South Mastic parking lot (where the Second Sole group often meets for Sat. AM runs), but you can click on any start and end point you want. Hint: if you're planning to run from a central point, out one direction and back and then out again in the other direction, select the 2 end-points in each direction to get the total distance.

Distances are approximate, as measured using GoogleMaps Pedometer, and spot-checked against my GPS. The measurements are close enough for planning training runs, but probably not good enough to do accurate time trials. I'm trying to get a wheel to measure more accurately this summer. See you in the park!
