Beautiful day in Baxter Woods
Perfect weather for running today! Temperature was in the 80s, but the air was light and there was a cool breeze blowing through the trees. Baxter Woods is a little nugget of nature in the middle of the city; so close to our apartment that we can do a 5 minute warm up walk to the woods, run the trails, and walk back to the house for our cool down. I know, we are quite lucky! The city of Portland has been working hard to improve the trails and the overall aesthetics and it has certainly paid off. The trails were well groomed and lined with mulch, the flowers were in full bloom and their smell emanating through the woods, and the pond was clean and covered with beautiful lily pads roughly the size of my head. Though I am sure I could have run a better pace, I found myself slowing down so as to enjoy my surroundings just a little bit more. Not a super challenging run, but definitely one to inject a little soul soothing in the day!
Happy Trails everyone!

Quick morning jaunt with Jodi
What a gorgeous morning for a trail run! Erika, my wife, Jodi, a beagle and the oldest of our three dogs, and I couldn't have asked for better weather this morning on our run through Baxter Woods (though, the run ended up being more like a slow jog as Jodi is getting old and not moving as well). I wasn't able to push myself, but I was able to start my day with some time in the woods! Fed the senses and soothed the soul!
