I forgot how pretty it is here in Vermont during the fall months. This is the best time of the year to be a runner. One of the things I missed most while I was in Colorado is running in the forest during a New England fall. The smell of fall in the air, crisp cool air, the smell of a forest, and the sound of the leaves crunching under your feet. It’s my favorite time of the year and I am happy to be back feeling good and running every day.

Dr Radnay did a great job with my ankle surgery and Brian cracked the whip with my physical therapy sessions. So far so good and I am hoping to make a return to racing in January at the Houston Half Marathon National Championships.  It’s a great race with a lot of excitement and I am really looking forward to participating in a few months.

Along with Fall comes Kona! We head to Kona this Saturday for a 10 day trip. Kim has been in Tucson preparing for the kona heat and her training is going very well with training partner Sam McGlone. I’m just jealous because they are having way too much fun without lil ol me! grrrr….. They train great together and I made them promise to put on a good show for me out there.

I’ve been loving Vermont. It has been a great move for me. Work is great and I am  having a blast with my athletes.

Now get your ass out the door and train!

Here are some pics from my last run with my favorite training partners. (sorry Kim , you’ve been replaced) We ran at Niquette State park.
