Doin her thing

Heather and I went running to get some photos for her story on local waterfalls. Who gets paid to run and take fun pictures? Must be nice. One picture is her on the Ausable Club property with Giant Mtn. in the background, and the other is her getting a photo of Roaring Brook Falls.

Enjoy.

Jenkins 5/18

On Monday I ran up Jenkins Mtn. in Paul Smith's, NY. Training for the Great Adirondack Trail run which is one of the last weekends in June, I felt I needed to start running some climbs. This race will have over 3000' of vertical gain and almost the same in descent. It was a cold, gloomy morning, which isn't the most condusive for photos, but I did what I could.

The trilliums were out in full bloom on this run, which made for some great sights. I also ran past an impressive beaver swap, where the beavers are still hard at work.

It ended up being 8.4 miles round trip, and I finished at about 1 hr 15 min, hopefully next time I will have some sun for a better view from the top.

Enjoy.
