Meet Thomas Mill

Thomas Mill is one of those routes everyone in our running club knows. It's a stretch of road in Leesburg that seems to kick everyone's butt. The first segment of the road is short, but steep; usually my heart feels like it's gonna jump right up my throat. Here's Steve, Mandy, and Luisa running uphill while I dilly-dally and take pictures.

After that first climb, you think it's over but realize that it's just the beginning. The rest of the road continues up and down like roller coaster. Granted it's no mountain, but for these parts of town Thomas Mill is a runner's arch-nemesis.
