Coverage run, navigating through the one part of Valley Forge Park w/o an orienteering map - the section North of 422. In the fully public portions, there's a big field, a small nice section of woods, and lots of dark green...
4 more areas to go to get to 4km!
And on a side note, getting coverage of the area within Lockheed's KoP mall location won't be magically covered by Chris Hand letting me in on a quick walk-tour, where I run a few steps in the right hallway ;)
He works at Lockheed, but would have a hard time getting into that building - let alone inviting a visitor... I think one of my neighbors works at Lockheed too...
Next nearest areas to cover (run within 100m of...):
3.8km: W, large yard by valley creek, just S of Lorimer
3.8km: W, steep hillside forest/yards, just N of Yellow Springs
3.9km: W, large field/yard btwn Yellow Springs and I-76
3.9km: NW, Phoenixville country club
4.0km: SE, Devon near Rt. 30
4.0km: S, SW Berwyn
4.0km: E, Lockheed Martin, KoP - High fenced private facility - slender line in center more than 100m from all walls and fences
4.0km: N, undeveloped VF park N of 422, nearby St. Gabriels Hall

Head still a little too stuffy to risk pushing really hard, so decided on a long loop to knock of the next nearest coverage area. Found a large, well-intact-walls ruin, and a pretty stream area that's possibly semi-public (open-space-easement...)
