Tonight we had the pleasure of linking up with the @fusionsj community to show them around some of the trails at the INP. It was great to see a few folks from the intro group, and to learn that some are running Rompin’ next weekend! Big thanks to the team at Fusion for putting this together, and especially for the delicious snacks! 😉
