a colorado sunday...


Sometimes I have this overwhelming feeling of joy and happiness when I get to fully experience the place in which I live. As a "new runner" (I feel I get to classify myself as this until it's been a full year since I started June '07)...I still find myself dealing with the mental battle between struggling through every step of a run vs feeling like I'm running on air and taking in every sight and smell. Today was a day when I found myself amazed at my surroundings. Pictured above is where I was running this morning with my great friend and running pal Staci...Palmer Lake in Monument, CO. As the weather warms up and the choices of running trails broadens...my enthusiasm to explore and challenge myself is a nice change of pace.
