    Popped up and out into the early morning black 4:45am for a 5 mile go. Where were an unusual amount of people out early. Cloud cover reflected plenty of light. Was gifted with 1 long screech owl calling and a big owl flying over my head at about mile 2 ish. That totally made my morning. Going to...

    Yesterday morning I stepped out into a crystal clear sky with a lazy lay down sliver moon. Clear mornings don't reflect any light and the dark street are pitch black that I travel. No worries. The rout was familiar at 5 am. No need for extra light, we just go by feel in some spots. Nice cool 61...

    Did a short under 2 miler this morning. Bright bold stars winking at me like they have a big secret. Foolish low 70’s low humidity in the mid 40’s. Resting up for my big 8 on Saturday. Much more fun in the early dark morning with no traffics and fumes. Happy camper

    Did a nice 5.4 mile a little later then usual. Now I remember why I like to go early. It's the traffic. One bat and one bunny was all. Temps are a nice 68 same hi humidity. Am looking forward to my 1st 8 miler Saturday. We'll see how that goes. I suspect it will go smoothly. Every thing just fine

    .[xquote="DNEchris, post: 140883, member: 417"]I'm in England this week and did 13 miles yesterday and 6 today with my sister. All min-shod, all trail - glad I had the Adams as broken flints are a real bugger! Were you throwing sparks as you ran?

    That's right, it's not as easy to get away with running holding a bag of brown 25 when you don't have a dog running with you.

    It was a brilliantly bright morning for my 10k today at the Tour De Flure. Lovely low 60's temps. Course was layed out short so added on in the end to plus some to get in 7 miles. The road bikers that fly around that Lake can be aggressive. I don't run with music, but the folks that did would...

    Mellow 3 mile fast walk with a bright moon nestled in cotton ball clouds. I'm due to go 8 miles Saturday so hope to have very few cowbells at the end of my 10k so I can add on a couple. Heard 2 separate screech owls gently putting forth their calls. When I hear them it just makes me feel happy...

    When I got to this post with the snow boot I nearly pissed myself laughing. Sent me to bed on a great laugh high.

    Had a first class 5 miler this morn 5 am. Started out with a jumbotron moon hanging low in the western sky. 80 degrees still and still humid as usual. I was rewarded with a falling star at mile 3 ish. That was really unique and a nice screech owl calling going through several different...

    Easy peasy 3 mile walk run. Had a distant cowbell but no reall issue. This was a recovery outing so I was slow. Started at my usual dark thirty 5am. A few bunnies and meet up with my hubby about 1 mile from home. We walked together and that was the hi light of my morning. Cooler temps on the...

    Did my 1st 7 mile today. Run/ walk mix. Started at my usual 5am with the usual hot and muggy conditions. All was going nice and smooth up until mile 5 and change. Then separate places in my person started to ring here and there like a cow bell. Ringing is my interpretation of pain. I started...
