My 2 most favorite places on earth would have to be:
1. the sandy beaches of anywhere overlooking vast bodies of water,
and here....
2. the majestic Rocky Mountains next door.
I'm heading out into these this weekend to run a 29km Trail Race.
Completely unprepared to race,
but because I feel I can breathe out here...it doesn't matter.
It may turn into a fast sort of hike.....which is fine by me.
Maybe I can stop to take pictures instead of feeling the need to set a record;).
Regardless....I'm hoping these dusty old Trail shoes hold up for another trek up the mountain.
I'm in need of the head~break before another season of football, school, and
running in all directions for the kiddos schedules.
Happy Trails to you....wherever this weekend takes you!

Stunning photos, Dawn! That first one is spectacular! Enjoy your race and be safe!
Your photos are amazing Dawn! And another run so soon? I think you have one heck of a good idea to not push to set a record, enjoy this one and see what transpires from there.
Have a wonderful, fun weekend!
Oh Dawn good luck but more important enjoy the view.
I have only seen the Rocky mountains twice in my life. They made such an impression on me I long to go back. I dream of the day I will be standing there looking up to these beautiful gifts of nature. B
Have a fun weekend!

Hope those trail shoes stood up to the test, but I'm sure you had the magic flip flops as a backup...:-)
