Hitting the trails

Wow!! I know it's been a minute since my last post, I do apologize! I've been soooo busy lately that I barely have time to log on to check my email, let alone update my blog.

I have been running though...although I'm still not exceeding 10km distances yet. I'm trying to fit in running when I can.

Case in point, we were away for a few days up north in the beautiful Muskoka area, staying at the Fern Glen Inn. Surrounded by tons of trails (and even more mosquitoes), I did manage to get out for a quick jog on them before the 'squitos' ate me alive!

I know why they make specialized shoes for the trails too (and not just to feed my need for shopping!) but for waterproofing against the elements! While my shoes are fab on the concrete and high school track surfaces, they are not equipped for running on soggy moss, and moist grass!! The water keep seeping into my toes as I ran...nothing worse than soggy toes!! So before I continue on trails (or at least during inclement weather) I must invest in a good pair of all weather runners.

But the scenery was amazing, I'll post some pics when I download them from my camera. If you live in Ontario, you definitely need to visit the area!
