  My morning runs have been very quiet, and very pretty! It has been a really good summer, and I am still squeezing every moment of warm sunshine I can. The red cedar trail has been a fave running spot and should prepare me well for my next marathon at Whistlestop! I am only 9 weeks away and I am really enjoying all the training that comes with training for a marathon. Sometimes I wonder if I enjoy the training and preparing more than the actual race hehehe...not really I do love racing...  This was my highlight photo from last week!  So so love it!!!

Final weekend with the full crew!

Red Cedar Lake-

This place has been such a fun spot to getaway to this summer- I'm really glad we took on a new adventure! It is nice to get out of Menomonie and have a clean lake to swim and play in. It is different every weekend who comes along! Sometimes it's just me, or Kyle and I, and sometimes we get the whole crew.  REALLY enjoying my swims! I've gotten more confident swimming in the lake- even with the weeds! A lil smoky last weekend So many loons and eagles this summer! bonfires with the boys! Finding many good running spots! kayaking  Summer is my fave! These hot temps are my favorite and I am soaking them all up!
