hockley run

it was a beautiful morning for a run in hockley. i convinced october that it was the 'less hilly' section and that she would be fine. we started on the 5th line and ran over to the 2nd - the bottom half of the infamous 'humpty dumpty' run from a couple of years ago. having been chirped by the captain on their last meeting, october, now disguised as september, was sporting her regulation pylon wear. (one more week until tights are allowed).

we came upon these little dudes just past the golf course.



as with all our runs in the past month, the forest was a spectacular wash of color. this is just by the big ravine before the 5th line.


and here i am trying to convince october that we only have ONE MORE HILL to climb. hehe!


awesome job today girl. for someone who claims to 'suck at hills', you sure kicked ass. be proud that you made it up every fricken one - including the nasty gravel road at the very end! running time was 1:35 and we covered around 7.6 miles.

cool quote from the captain . . .

"at our age, getting out of bed in the morning is an adventure, let's see what hurts today"

love it!!
