Finals Study Break (Covert Night Run up East Rock Park)

This was one of our more creative activities. With most of us under the weight of finals and pool practice on break until January, what better outlet than to meet up and do a little night run up to the top of East Rock? While not something I’d do every day (30 degrees…), it happened to be a new moon and the Geminids meteor shower, so beat that. I can’t believe anybody was willing to indulge me in this idea - you guys are awesome. I think we logged ~5 freezing miles and some decent elevation. And no cops!
