Running
Really nice evening run exploring some more trails. I am actually surprised how dry the creek bed was.
The local run today got canceled but I still decided to get outafter the rain stopped. However, wow the humidity and heat I was not ready for again.
Back home finally and did a little exploratory run in the Southern part of Eden Prairie where it seems there is an actual Prairie 😁. Trying to figure out how this section connects to what was old Riverview Road.
Had a nice run into Bayfield on the Brownstone Trail. The section I was on might have been closed as I noticed a sign I blew past as well as a fence I hopped but the views were great along the water. Mostly due to erosion as there was some quick footwork in places but I sure hope they are able to preserve it.
This would be where there was some erosion and obviously no one has used this trail in a while.
Good morning from Bayfield
Was raining today but wanted to get out for a run mostly to explore Porcupine Mountains. The trail was interesting and at first I felt like it just wasn’t maintained by the fallen tree but eventually I was a on a very small boardwalk that eventually turned into a muddy mess.
First time running along a beach for most of the run. It was fun but I did get a little too close tempting the water and soaked a foot 🏃🏻♂️
ran all the way out to the end of that peninsula
and now back
Thankful for the quiet mornings on this trip when the kids have all been sleeping in after late nights. Don’t mind me I am just sitting here drinking my coffee after a nice trail run this morning 😉☕️
It was a beautiful cool morning today to get a small run in. The roots from trees on this route kept me looking down a lot but still saw some good sights. Till the trail wasn’t the trail anymore 🤦♂️🏃🏻♂️
Didn’t really want to get up and move today. However, this was the only time I was going to find to run so it was a now or not going to happen. Maybe my effort shows that too but at least it was nice out this morning.
With this heat I am thinking I need to get up earlier to get my miles in. However, it was still pretty warm out at this hour too. 😴🥵🏃🏻♂️
Happy Father’s Day run. I explored more of Waconia today and found some new trails and couldn’t find others I had hoped to find. 🏃🏻♂️
Had to follow Doodlebug trail🐶
Looks calm but I tell you what it was hot, humid, and windy out there today. I probably should have woke up earlier today to get this done. 🏃🏻♂️
I meant to run much earlier today to avoid some of the heat and humidity but didn’t and was right in the thick of it. If the sun would have stayed behind the clouds that might have helped as well. 🥵
Felt like I was swimming out there today with the humidity and heat. I did find a new place I have run by often but never down the road to see the water. Maybe because it was downhill and I knew I have to run back up later 😁.
Most likely the last run in this area till fall when my girls are back at dance. I enjoyed this small loop I found that is right around 400 meters. It is a good way to pass the time towards the end of my run that is close to the studio. 🏃🏻♂️
