Camaraderie

Today we welcomed some new and some visiting runners to a Fourth of July Holiday Run.  Overnight, the temperatures dropped and the wind picked up - that lovely breeze kept up all night, banging the little aluminum pans we had hung amongst the apple trees in a (probably) futile effort to keep the deer away.  And this morning it was still breezy, and improbably cool after so many warm days - 62 degrees at our house, 58 up in Town.  I ended up doing a little over 12 miles at a leisurely pace.

I have been running by myself recently, and so it was good to remember how much fun it is to run with others - a group of companionable runners, enjoying this Highlands morning together.
