HISTORY OF THE HARTFORD TRACK CLUB RIVERTON/PLEASANT VALLEY TWO-LOOP GROUP RUN
The group run uses a loop that goes up one side of the Farmington River to Riverton,
and down the other to Pleasant Valley. The loop was measured by Bill Tribou on March
11, 1980, at least that's the date on his report. The then-new, HTC measuring wheel
he used gave him a distance of 13,787 meters, so two loops would be 17.134 miles.
