Back on the Trail!

I went for a RUN today!

Outside!

Hallelujah!

The lingering snow has helped to minimize the smoke coming off the Cameron Peak Fire, meaning our air quality is suddenly… healthy!

So this morning I went for a run.

And while it was “nothing special” in so many ways — my usual route, a modest four-miler at an easy pace — I was so profoundly full of gratitude with every step. I’m starting the day feeling really, really good.

I snapped a few photos out there today, just soaking in the fall scenery at Pineridge Open Space. The prairie dogs were singing their usual morning songs, and I even saw a coyote weaving his or her way up the hill.

Soon I’ll finish up the weekly summary for last week’s virtual trek up Great Britain, but for the moment I am SO happy to be out on the trail I just had to share.

Take care, everyone, & see you on the trail!
