..works best on small screens!

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.

8r4d Now that the snow has arrived and the cold winds are whipping through the streets, our Sunday #running adventure was a little chillier than we’ve been acclimated. We logged a simple eight klick run plotted to keep the wind at bay and avoid the too icy trails. Post-run coffee tho was definitely a warm up.

Fall Classic | 1 month ago

8r4d Our Sunday #running adventures culminated at another race. I haven’t raced in well over a year so the ole start line anxiety kicked in pretty hard. It was raining and cold but not quite freezing, so sixteen klicks was tougher than it should have been, but I got it done in the end.

8r4d The #running before the run? We met about two hours before the fun run race Run For The Cure, and did a 10k lap around Mill Woods.

We crossed the tracks, found a #garagesale and travelled some trails I’d never personally run thru.

Oh and the temperatures dropped below zero, so it was a chilly morning.

8r4d Our gradually increasing distances took us into the creek for a chilly #autumn #running adventure on a Sunday morning, the last long run of September. Fifteen klicks was one more than we planned but one less than our race distance just a month away. Still lots of time to build but only a few long run opportunities left as the days get chilly and short again.

8r4d Our Sunday morning #running for the last day of #summer felt very much like an #autumn run through the orange hued trails. We’ve been ramping up our distances as we’ve been training for fall races, so this morning was 12k of rolling creek and suburban paths in the chilly morning air.

Sunday the 21st of September, 2025, about lunch.
