Hartwood Run The Lights

Every year they have the Festival of Lights at Hartwood Acres, and the night before it opens they have a "Run The Lights" event.  This is the 5th one, and the first I've gone to.  It was very nice.  I ran from home, but if you couldn't park nearby they had shuttle buses from the Community Center.  The place was jammed.  There were runners and walkers, and every stroller in Allegheny County was there.  They gave me a jingle bell which I dutifully carried until it fell off of its yarn about halfway through.  All in all, it was a 43 minute run, and I'm lucky to have not sprained an ankle going off the pavement to dodge various obstructionists.
