Running
Finally found myself back at home in familiar setting in the trails North of our house. It was good ramble along before dinner.
Trails! Convinced my running friend to meet me at a park where we could have lots of fun in the trails and hills. Disappointed that we couldn’t get to the overlook but maybe next time. There was a gate and if people wouldn’t have been around I for sure would have investigated further.
Today’s run effort was brought to you by the plumber who had all day to stop by and chose the moment I started to run to call. Then gave me well under the 30-45 min notice to get back so this was much quicker and shorter than planned.
A very green pond 🤢
Had to get this one in early today with all the activities. 4th of July 5K run in the books and the heat but looks like we might get rained out later today 🤨
Kind of a last min run as I didn’t even have the right shoes on. However, since I dropped off our stuff for the Edina Parade I decided to run the route to see how long it really was.
Should NOT have run in these shoes 🤦♂️
Stroll around Clear Lake and Maplewood Park in what was some warm weather with lots of sun out. Glad to be done and jumped in the pool with the kids after. Now after sitting for a while my legs are feeling it maybe I need to drink some more water.
It was a super humid one out there today at 90% before 730am 🥵. I took the trail the other way to explore some more before we leave today.
Foggy morning or maybe foggy and smoky. Found a some interesting places to explore around the Fox River.
Early morning Chicago exploration. Not used to seeing so many other people out running at this hour. At times I felt like I was in a race.
Another beautiful day to run along the Harbor and I decided to make it a little longer by circling Back Cove.
24 hrs later and a whole new look of the harbor. Enjoyed the sun out today on this early but doesn’t seem as early run.
Out and back to Bug Light! It felt good running after what seems like a day of travel with a little work from time to time.
Father’s Day 4 miles was all I could muster on a really humid hot day. If only the rain in those clouds would have come.
Planned on enjoying a morning run while the family was asleep but when I got up at 6 it rained until 10. So the next best thing was making some breakfast bagel sandwiches for everyone. 😄
Found a couple random trails to explore around Westgate Conservation area. Some trails were good some seemed more like deer trails as I wound my way around this swamp. Other than that it was hot outside and I again chose a bad time to get out there.
Meeting got done early and the boy was at basketball so I decided to get a run in. It wasn’t bad out today but better in the shade than the direct sun as I didn’t pack water. Was hoping this was a trail but it doesn’t look like it at all.
