I went for a 3-hour run a while back and an acquaintance was like "What do you do? Do you listen to audiobooks or what?". Err, no, I get to spend that time alone with my brain, it's the best.
Monday base run on a slightly blocked route... One merganser, a tree full of cedar waxwings, one woman losing a debate with her dog on whether or not it should roll in the grass (she was against, the dog was very much for). #trailrunning #runsky #running
Nice, easy 5.25 km today. Now: coffee and some editing work. #running #runsky #trailrunning
A gorgeous day for a long run. Half a marathon in the bag - and the month and weekend are off to a fine start. Good times! #running #runsky #trailrunning #ultrarunning
You have to visit the gallows when it's Halloween (I don't make the rules, I just abide by them). Short (quite windy!) Halloween run. Lots of errands to do, long run planned tomorrow. #running #runsky #trailrunning
Another base run: 13 km and some change. Many, many Germans (two cruise ships in today), plus a cat out walking its humans.
First interval run since May. If I'm going to run up a mountain next summer, it's not too early to start working on the foundation now. Warm up, 2x10x30 seconds, cool down. #running #runsky #trailrunning #ultrarunning
Hard to tell off just this image, but I'm guessing snowberry.
Base run, to set the week off in a good way. Enjoying a break in the clouds (always better when you see the rain that's isn't falling on you). #trailrunning #runsky #running
A bring-your-own-sunshine kind of day. Easy pace. I consider this the off season - still mulling over what kind of races I want to focus on next year. #trailrunning #ultrarunning #runsky
Shake-out run, 3.5 miles at 9:05 min/mi. A bit of fog and a smattering of rain, but also some fall colors to admire. #runsky #trailrunning #nature #running
The forecast says rain all week, so better to get out while it's sunny. Strava thinks pretty much all my runs are "massive" or "historic." I generally disagree. I wasn't really in the mood for a run, but seeing the ocean always cheers me up.
Well done you, and best of luck on race day!
A bit more than eight windy miles today. Winter is coming, which means that windy days = eagles. One obligingly flew into the frame here (that tiny black speck at the top middle).
