John Nepolitan is the coach of Don Bosco Prep in New Jersey,
and he wields a mean camera. Here are pictures from the Van Cortlandt
Park woods near the bridge, which runners traverse on the way out
to the back hills and on the way back.
Boys approach the bridge through the woods.
The railroad ties for erosion control are ready to trip the unwary.
Molly Huddle NY (gold) had the lead
on the way out (below), but Natasha Roetter MA (red)
worked the hills well
and took control on the way back (right).
