In the mountains

There are a lot of places that we go on our journey and yet we keep coming back to the mountains to test our soul, to connect with nature and to be entertained by the changing conditions that are ever present.  Today we completed a 50 mile mountain run in Leadville CO.  The high mountain country tests all that we can bring to the day.  The altitude alone is a challenge, throw in big climbs, snow and rain, rocks and streams and the 12 hours that we spend in the mountains do everything they are supposed to do.   So, even when it is hard there is an attraction to want to be there in the elements, testing and learning.  It never gets old and it is always an amazing experience.  Here’s to the mountains and all that they provide us, we are better because of them.

Loving life when I am in the mountains
