Soaring Eagle Hike and the Fitness Challenge Continues

We had a fabulous hike today at Soaring Eagle Park on the Sammamish Plateau. The weather was perfect and the forest beautiful. There were  few birds out including a pileated woodpecker (see the video below).

And don't forget we are still on the Fitness Challenge, 2 exercises a day between Thanksgiving and the New Year. Not too late to get on the fitness wagon! Write me for the details.

Stay fit and healthy over the holidays and one great way to do that is to take part in the Holiday Fitness Challenge. It is as simple as 3-5 exercises a day! Write me for more info if you didn't get the email.

Fall Colors are Fabulously Cheerful

Congratulations to Deb and Cheryl (and the family) at the Long Beach 1/2 Marathon and Stacey and Cris at the Portland 1/2 Marathon. The races were on October 8th and everyone did well.

Seattle is alive with colors now and we are enjoying biking and running in the beauty.

Next up: Lake Washington 1/2 Marathon next week for Deb and Cheryl and the Thanksgiving weekend 1/2's coming up in a month!

Poo Poo Point and Start of the Fall Race Season

We had a fabulous hike at Tiger Mtn up too Poo Poo Point. Mix bag with the weather, perfect temps though. Very little drizzle and the sun even came out at the end. Great northwest forest, many ferns, big trees and huge devils club! New pit toilets at the top - very cool with hand sanitizer too.

Good luck to our racers next week at 1/2 Marathons in Portland and Long Beach, CA!!

 

Happy Birthday RUN

Fall Hiking and Run Group Sarts

We had a fabulous hike to Kendall Katwalk on Saturday. It was a tad bit smokey so the views were good, but not the usual crystal clear!

The Sunday group has started, training for fall 1/2 marathon and 10 km races (or not). Great fun running and walking with all our buddies again.

Niki and Sandra had great rides on the High Pass challenge. Until now our biking team has been able to still get out there and have fun. Including a birthday ride with a Starbucks stop.
