This is a beautiful route through gently rolling hills. A very nice course if you're training for a marathon or ultra or just feel like running 20 miles for some strange reason.
This is a one-way trip from Lawrenceville to Chateau Elan in Braselton. The route goes through lots of gently rolling hills in mostly rural areas. As I got near Chateau Elan I ran by several what appeared to be million dollar homes. I hope to enjoy this route again in about a month when it's a bit cooler. For most of the run I ran along the left side of the road. Ocasionally I was forced onto the grass/dirt shoulder. At 7:00 AM on Sunday this did not happen very often. At other times of the week it may be a little more busy.
