Which way did he go?

Believe me Fabio. You had the right idea when you missed this sign.  You should have just kept on running and  running and never looked back. I sure wish we had.
nah, it was great, hard technically, and a monster of a climb, harder than Comfortably Numb, but well worth it in the end.

 going to run.

After a really fun trail run last week which lasted about 35 minutes around Lost Lake , Jack piped up that he wanted to run Comfortably Numb.  Since Hubby [...]

I’ve Been Unfaithful…….

I wasn’t planning for this to happen.
  I  thought I was happy,
 I  thought I was satisfied.

just something to do on those cold and rainy winter days
 but sadly something was missing, and I needed a new love
It just [...]
