I did some running today and it was glorious. I’m visiting my parent’s near the Kananaskis. I left their place this morning and went to the highway and then started running. It is hilly so I got some good training in that way.
The first part was somewhat boring. There was a nice valley immediately, but after that it were a lot of long straightaways in the trees. It would have been nice to have been listening to my iPod at that point, but that probably isn’t the safest thing to do when you are effectively playing in traffic. When I passed Bragg Creek, the mountains opened themselves up to me and I had no need of distraction.
Luckily my family had driven ahead to take the dog for a walk in the park. So at the end of my run I got a ride back home.
