Hickman-Drake Campus

Route Type: Run
Tags: Hilly

description: 30th Street provides steady downhill leading up to the route around the Drake Campus. It is a nice run through campus and offers lovely scenery. As you run past the stadium and the statue of the bulldog you are motivated to finish strong. Back to 30th where you run the same route, in reverse. The hill seems to be much easier as the cobblestone is downhill this time. A strong finish as you pass Monroe elementary and Hickman Rd. Holcomb Ave offers the final downhill to finish stronger than ever.
