Why a salamander in the race logo? Brecksville Reservation has vernal pools with Spotted, Redback, and Jefferson varieties of Salamanders. In the spring, thousands of salamanders undergo a trek from their home in the woods to the vernal breeding pools. Not only are they just the cutest little animals but can you believe they have been on the Earth for more years than we have existed in days!

Fall leaves 🍁, creek crossings, a few hills & wooden foot bridges, 2 loops that didn’t seem repetitive, made for another great run from Western Reserve Racing!
