Part of me wishes I had photos to share from my impromptu, mini, sunset hike this evening. One, so I could paint a better picture of what I’m about to describe. And two, so I could remember it more vividly myself. The better part of me is glad I don’t. I …
Today’s run is a tough one to put into words. Ya kinda “had to be there.” But if I were to sum it up in a few words, it was powerful and liberating. Powerful, because of the mighty winds that whipped through the canyon on my way up. Liberating on the …
Those who know me well know that I’m a big fan of the following:

I’ve spent the first few days in Boulder unpacking, getting to know my roommates, grocery shopping, and picking up a few things that just didn’t quite make the cut for my road trip. Today, it was time to explore.
After driving through, and arriving in, crappy conditions, the weather has been beautiful all weekend. Upper-40s to mid-50s during the day, with the golden Colorado sun shiny all day long.
