Georgetown to Navy Yard

Although it was a bitter, cold day, best for watching football and beers, I truly enjoyed every second of this invigorating SUP.

Early Dec stand-up paddle in majestic Potomac and historic Anacostia from Georgetown to Navy Yard. Filmed with Casio EXILM EX-G1. Board is NSP 11'
Synched to U2's "One."

As you can see here the EX-G1 takes great shots and is highly rugged and 100% waterproof.

It is think, has a great battery that lasts and lasts and is extremely durable.

The New DC, MD, VA (DMV) Loop

This is the new DMV Loop that is exactly 26.2 miles.

It starts and stops at the Washington Monument.
The route relies heavily on bike and running trails and only about 5% of it is on busy streets.

Routes used:

1. Anacostia Park
2. Suitland Parkway
3. Oxon Run Trail
4. Oxon Hill Bike Trail
5. National Harbor/Woodrow Wilson
6. Mount Vernon Trail

This marathon loop crosses three bridges:

1. Frederick Douglas (Nationals Park to Anacostia)
2. Woodrow Wilson (National Harbor to Alexandria)
3. Memorial (Arlington to National Mall)

It finishes with one loop around Hains Point to finish at the Washington Monument to reach exactly 26.2 miles.

The majority of the course is very scenic especially along Oxon Hill Trail (wild deer and turkeys)

The only major traffic lights you will encounter are those along Independence Ave and on Suitland Parkway and Stanton Rd in SE.

The idea is to one this loop for a marathon distance or to cycle this loop four times to reach 105 miles.
