Why is summer so short?

July 29th, this is a summer morning in Idaho

I've been feeling pretty good. I think it's because I'm upping my HC adequately when I run and work. If I don't up my HC enough, I become achy, tired and inappropriately sore in the days following exercise. It's been a busy week, clients coming and going and lots of running. The weather has been ridiculously cold. Nice for running, bad for regular summer stuff. I hate wearing pants, long sleeve shirts and socks during most of the day!

I got 35 miles total of running in on Saturday and Sunday. I was only sore on my shin where I hit a hidden rock really hard.

I've sorted the pictures by subject so you can skip what you don't want to look at. Animals are at the bottom.

Teton Crest Trail Pictures on Facebook.

Click to see too many pictures of the most beautiful trail I've ever been on.

Mill Creek Trail

A view of the top of the Grand Teton through the Aspens. This is what you see from the Grand Teton Races course.

Red Creek Trail

Jo and Targhee on the new switchbacks on Red Creek Trail. Thanks Teton Valley Trails and Pathways!!

Aspen Trail

New culvert in the spring mud pit on Aspen Trail. My son helped Teton Valley Trails and Pathways put this culvert in. Yay Zane!

I love running in grizzly country

Yep, took this picture of myself. I'm a geek.

Beautiful!

I thought I would take some cute video of me herding cows off the trail, instead I ended up hiding behind a tree because the "cow" turned out to be a bull that didn't want to be herded

Animals at the ranch

Catch getting his saddle removed

Godzilla on his new roost. Turkeys will probably be released pretty soon.

Baby horse is so cute and getting more beautiful every day.

Baby ducks are still a little weird, can't swim gracefully and stay together in a bunch.

Buffy's legs are getting better by the day. She is so much happier now.
