Blowdowns
The road to the trailhead is nearly impassible due to massive potholes covering the entire width of the road like swiss cheese, with no way around them. I could barely get there with an SUV. However, there was a crew there and fresh gravel covering the first few miles of the road, so it looks likely the entire way to the trailhead will be done soon.

The trail has a lot of blowdowns, so running was slow. At the 3 mile point, where the trail rejoins the river's edge, the trail is undermined and there's a bit of a dropoff to the river, so you have to climb over trees and around a bit. Would not recommend this for small children at this point, until trail crews have time to fix it up.

I made it to Dingford Creek Bridge and then turned around. GPS said 6 miles each way.
