I decided I was going to start running a little over a year ago, even though I HATED running. But If you decide to like something... eventually you really will. I like running now, but most especially I love running on trails in the hills behind Sunnyside. I don't like running in the city. Thankfully, in Sunnyside, there isn't much city. Its very nice living in the country side. Anyway! Here are pictures of my favorite hill. I finally ran from the bottom all the way to the top and all the way to the other side and back! It is 11 miles total.
I love how empty it is up here. I'm only 10 miles outside of Sunnyside, but it mayas well be 100!
There mountain ranges in the background, you can see Adams and Rainier.
The view from the other side of the hill!
That is the next hill I am going to run to! hee hee
crazy old broken down radio tower, which is a land mark for me. I can see it from my bathroom window. I used to say to myself..."someday you're gonna run to that little radio tower" and now I can say.... I did! hooray!
Have you thought about doing any races?
ReplyDeleteI sure have! I did two tri-athalons last summer (just sprints) and I'm doing an olympic one this summer, plus and half marathon! I'm doing bloomsday this weekend. But my first official running only race was two weeks ago. I got first in my division... but... there was like 3.. maybe 5 in my division to start out with! but that still counts right? Bu the way! congrats on you 5k!
