Scenes from the trails and races where I spend a lot of my free time. I’m perpetually in some kind of training mode. Races. Fitness. Distance. Streaks. Or just good old fashioned peer pressure. This site is nothing of not stuffed full of running posts and pics.

#runclub switched to #trails #running mode this evening and we met at the Savage center to delve into the deep woods of Whitemud Creek which was slick and spicy from recent #rain … as recent as half way thru our run and a mad dash back to our cars.

#running #trails on a Sunday morning in the sunshine was a great way to round out the weekend which has been a little cloudy and cool otherwise #rivervalley

I was neither #running nor #volunteering but I did ride my #bike down to one of the turnarounds on the 5 Peaks #race course this morning where RM was manning a road crossing and waving some flags at the cars trying to show the runners who’s im charge. I mean, c’mon tho. I was there about an hour watching the race and another hour cycling there and back, about 15k round trip.

Day thirty and with one day left in this month long #running streak I drove all the way across town to run #trails with the gang over in Goldbar. We got a little lost in the woods, but in a good way, and ended up doing a 180 flip and going back the way we came when we realized the trail was going to be closer to an marathon than a Thursday run. Everyone else had pretty much had a busy week of running and racing to, so a bit of a slower pace was not unwelcome.

The end of the month creeps ever closer and on day 29 of this #running streak I found myself contemplating running with a sparse run club (cuz basically everyone bailed) or parsing out yet another solo gauntlet route. I chose the latter, and dodged yet more local construction and post rain puddles as I eked out a quick afternoon 6k.
