Whadda day!


Today was spent scoping out next weekend's trailrun.  It was an absolutely glorious day!I only hiked about a third of it~about the last three miles so I was hiking up part of the run that we will be running down.  I got to the top of the first ascent - full prepared to climb down when.....yowie!!!  It was straight down!  Now this is a trail run.....not a hike.  But you can bet that I won't be running straight up the side of the mountain!    But next Saturday is going to a blast!  There is nothing wrong with a day spent in the forest whether you are running or walking, whether it is snowing or raining....something about the trees calms my soul and makes me  happy.  
This is the top of the last mountain/hill. We will be running up this. And this is the smallest of the elevations.

Just popped over from Di's. I like blogs about crafts and animals. Love your Mr Wienie - I had a rough-haired dachs in my teens. Now I have two four-legged friends to boss me around.
That trail looks as if it could be here - in Norway!
