Whoa! Where did summer go?
I LOVE summer but here are a few things that I will enjoy this Fall:
1.Cooler and Less Humid Weather Conditions.
As I said, I normally love the sunshine and warm temps of summer. But this summer, the humidity really tried my patience.
Hopefully, this Fall, my runs will be more comfortable and hence speedier.
2. Fall Foliage Viewing and More Hiking Activities.
Living in upstate New York, we are usually treated to gorgeous fall colors. Hopefully the awful summer weather will not impact this.
The Fall is also for the same reason, my favorite season to hike in. Boating Sundays will end soon and be replaced by Hiking Sunday.
3. More Racing Ops.
Many of the Fall races are now being held in-person.
Great Pumpkin Challenge
Many of the spring races have been re-scheduled to this Fall.
Freihofer Run for Women
4. A Race-cation with Friends.
Last year, I went to NH with my running friends but the race was cancelled. So this year, we rented a house again and plan to spend 4 days in NH which will include running an in-person race and assorted shenanigans.
after our “virtual” Smuttynose Half Marathon
5. Pumpkin everything and Cider Donuts!
Yes, I do love Fall food!! Especially those with added sugar LOL
Happy Running! Are you looking forward to Fall? If so, what activities do you have planned?

Oh yes! You know me- pumpkin everything.
Yes, the fall weather should make you speedier! Your trip to NH sounds like it will be amazing. If your fall is anything like the summer you just had, I imagine you taking advantage of any and all opportunities to enjoy it!

I do plan to race as often as often as I can.
I need to get back to hiking…but hard to make time for it.

I am not a Summer person. Never have been. It was easier when I’ve had easy access to free pools.
I do enjoy Fall. I think most people do!

Love summer too but never been a pool person – lakes and oceans are my preference.

At last fall is coming. Summer, in these latest years, is becoming a nightmare for my running!
I love the fall weather, the colors and …. the races! (Maybe because I was born in October?)
