What Runners See

It’s not a stretch to say that runners see the world differently.

We have a tendency to go off the path or maybe visit it at an ungodly early/late hour, when the weather is terrible or generally just when no one else with an ounce of sanity is anywhere around.

Their loss, I say.

Lately, Steph and I have alternated our long runs so that while one runs, the other acts as a sag wagon.  For instance, I ran on Saturday while she biked along with water and Gatorade.  On Sunday, I repaid the favor.  I also brought a camera along.

All the pictures (after the break to save on load times for those with RSS feeds) were taken on the Trout Run Trail around Decorah.

    The only people out in that kind of weather are the nuts. I love it too, walking my dogs in the wind and the rain and the mist at odd times.

    Aaron has been my sag wagon as well. Very helpful not having to haul water and gels on 18 mile runs.
