FFF: Fall Running


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 wet 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 Sundays.

3. More Racing Ops.

Many more races are scheduled in the Fall compared to the summer.

4. A Race-cation with Friends.

Last year, I went to Maine with my running friends and we had so much fun that this year, we rented a house again and plan to spend 4 days in the Finger Lakes region of NYS which will include running a race and other assorted shenanigans.

5.Pumpkin everything and Cider Donuts!

Yes, I do love Fall food!! Especially those with added sugar.  A must-have after a long run or race.

Happy Running! Are you looking forward to Fall? If so, what activities are on your bucket list?

    Yes, I’m DEFINITELY looking forward to cooler temps- sadly we won’t get them for a while. You will definitely be speedier when the weather cools down.

  2. Agreed on all accounts. This summer has been even hotter than normal here so I’m very much looking forward to cooler temps and less humidity. I’ve also got a half marathon planned for November, which I’m looking forward to. Races pretty much stop here from late May through August.
