-4.9 miles
-Starting in Freedom Park, headed to uptown, then on into NODA on the Little Sugar Creek Greenway
-This is really putting the “urban” in Urban Hike, as we’ll head from the “suburbs” into the urban core of Charlotte
-Will have to take a slight detour off the greenway due to ongoing construction by the hospital
-We’ll get to see many of the statues along the Trail of History
-We’ll finish up at a brewery in NODA that is close to the light rail station
-So a few more logistics than last year; some may choose to Uber over to Freedom Park then Uber home from NODA (or take the light rail home).
