On the Turkey Trail
Posted on November 28th, 2009 by Heather Dugan
Birthdays and holidays always send me to the woods. It’s been a personal tradition to run on my birthdays and New Year’s Day. Yes, I generally run on most other days too, but it’s especially affirming to not take a “day off” when the day is marking a significant event. Thanksgiving and Christmas are all about family and friends though, so even better than a solo run, is a family hike through a favorite park on Thanksgiving Day.
It’s no surprise that my kids and I ended up at Highbanks Metro Park. Hannah and I run its trails frequently. The leaves are all on the ground now, revealing the topography of land once chosen by the ancient Adena Indians.
Run, and keep running.
I hike at least once a week, jog twice in the evening every week.
It is so good to be able to move around.
Sounds nice. I’m not way into running, but I do it to keep in shape. But hiking in the woods is great.
Have a good week.
Rainfield: Gotta run and gotta hike. Good health is a blessing we cannot waste.
ONE of THE GUYS: Hiking is probably more enjoyable for most people. I don’t pretend to understand why I love running so much!
Very extraordinary site.
The info here is very valuable.
I will invite my friends.
Cheers
