Today is Tuesday so don’t forget to Link-up with Patty, Erika, and Marcia and either meet some new bloggers or catch up with ones you already know.
The topic for today is: Favorite Thing(s) About Fall Running
Well, I could possibly just mention ONE thing.
First, the scenery. I love the colors of the leaves in the fall. All the paths where I run are so pretty this time of year.
-
Colonie Town Park
-
Washington Park
-
Corning Bike Path
Second, the number of races. For someone who loves to race every weekend in the fall, there is the largest selection during this running season.
Third, the cooler temps make those PRs possible. Not all my PRs have come in the fall but many have. I look forward to trying to recapture my 2014-15 speed.

Happy Running! What is your favorite thing about fall running? Do share.
My First 5K and More... 
I love the scenery too! Those fall colors are just amazing (and your photos are beautiful!). I love the cooler weather and the fact that I don’t feel like I’m dying while running! I always feel like an actual runner come Fall!

Unfortunately I haven’t seen any amazing colors this year. I enjoy running in cooler temps but I have a hard time knowing what to wear.

Not yet at least! They’re coming! I totally get not knowing what to wear. I usually end up in tank tops until I realize it’s actually cold and my arms are turning blue. 😂

My favorite thing about fall running is the possibility of cooler weather. I mean, it hasn’t happened yet, but it MIGHT. 😉

Are those your colors this year? Ours are starting but I think they’re going to be lame. It’s been SO dry here.

No. Not at all. Our colors are so disappointing this year – I haven’t seen anything pretty.

We’re not at peak yet, so there’s hope for color . . . the temps are indeed my favorite thing about fall running. Obviously you can have too much of a good thing though . . .

We don’t have much color happening here yet….and not much on the ground (probably from that wave of summer weather recently)

I think the same is happening here.

I do like fall running, but I hate being cold at the start of race even though I know I will quickly warm up.
