This .23 mile segement begins on the Beartracks Bridge by the stairs down to Caras Park and heads South on the West side of the Bridge and finishes on the NW Corner of Higgins and 4th. It’s a one way segment, meaning you’ll have to run back to the start to get another segment.

Meet Eric Kienle!

Ultrarunner and father. I am an active part in the ultrarunning and Missoula communities. I volunteer at aid stations and help volunteer to build new trails and let the kids chase me at the Leprechaun Dash every year. I am constantly pushing my boundaries between human potential and impossibility. 
 
Thanks Eric!

"I joined RWM in the winter of 2010 to help me train for the Missoula Marathon, to raise money for the Reeve Foundation in honor of Bob Heinle. What I've gotten out of my membership is a great deal more. Training, yes. But also the friendship of people who treated me as if I were already an athlete, from the very beginning. Each contact with someone from RWM has been a gift of health and joy. That may seem like hyperbole, but it is not. This organization is FANTASTIC!"
