Always take your running shoes on vacation

[runswithdogs]

The scenery can inspire you to keep running and running and running. My second ever 10k today, with a few stops and walks to review a map and a few turn-arounds to avoid herds of elk.

Happy running folks! It's spring!

Oh gawd, those hills!

[runswithdogs Graduate in reply to misswobble]

Ran mine along the river so flat as a pancake, but locals trail run that mountain every day.

That looks just beautiful. Enjoy!

Don't have too many problems with stray elk here!

Lovely photo.

Personally I would stop at "Always take your running shoes". That "hill" in the background is a bit of a climb though!

Looks wonderful. I cant wait to run on holiday .

[misswobble Graduate]

It looks absolutely beautiful and it would be truly wonderful to run there. Just the flat bits though. I bet the air is clear up there

[Ullyrunner Graduate]

What a fabulous backdrop to your run!

[Madge50 Graduate]

Beautiful, what a wonderful mesmerising view, that would certainly let your mind free wheel as the kms tick by! I'm taking my running shoes on hols this year, essential I would say!

Beautiful!!!! Training at altitude is amazing for your heart and lungs, by the way, and the benefits last longer than those gained in higher oxygen.

All of which technical waffle is purely to distract me from the fact that I'm green with envy. Enjoy it!

[Toonlou24 Graduate]

That is lush!!!! Wow!!!

[Vixchile Graduate]

Wow, what a coincidence ... if I was to take a photo out of my window here in the West Midlands I would get a very similar picture (I bloomin' wish!!)
