so..we pass from summer to autumn in the blink of a day. some might say 'what summer?'. to me it doesn't matter. there are things in life you can change , and other stuff you can't, so just go with the flow in some cases. besides i really love the seasons here and the differences we experience running through them
it wasn't that long ago that i felt the year just ticking slowly by. before we know it we're heading towards Halloween at brake neck speed.
hollie and will have both returned to school, both moving up a class and the stakes grow.
karen and the 'boys' just keep improving so it's great to see their rise as they head into the autumn eventing schedule, with the great elemski coming into his own at such a young age. go guys!
as for me and the pooch?
let's start with his nibs. he must be the best part of 10 years now or thereabouts, making him hitting on late 60's in dogs years. but you wouldn't know it. he is as he was two/three/four years ago..leading by example..at the front..me in tow. and i'd like it to stay that way for as long as i can. so, he's no longer going to be entered into real long distance stuff but will be my guide and pacemaker for all my training runs and any stuff under 30 miles. this way i'm sure we'll stil be running together for some time yet.
and as for me? well let's just say the jury's out for 2012. i still have the hardmoors 60 next week but what the future may bring is anyone's guess..any suggestions guys???

Punk Dog IPA. Its hoppy man.
I am sure Charlie would approve.
I love Autumn. Although it was like summer here today.
Good luck for the Hardmoors.
Only proper runners enjoy the changing seasons... and October means cross country (yay!) with all that sliding in greasy mud at lung-bursting speed. How's that for a new challenge UC? Bet Charlie would love it...
The bogs and clarts down here are maturing nicely - love the Autumn (although I can see why the Americans call it the fall)
I reckon the 100 has your name on it........
hmmm, suggestions.... how about a scottish coast to coast or the welsh dragons back route?
just keep doing what you love doing :) running with pooch, good friends or just with your own thoughts. Navigating to the top, running along ridges, making mad decents, taking in spectacular views and feeling grrreat :)))
sbrt..i'll let him try some;)
debs..its summer its winter ...
rb..sounds way too competitive for me!
4w..funny you should say that..your name on it too maybe??
kate..will have a nosey
karen..spot on..you know me tooo well..but then you should :)
We moved from winter to a one day spring into summer. the 60 sounds good and i agree...somewhere a 100 must be waiting for you. All the best for Hardmoors!
It sounds like we are on the same schedule with our weather change and I think that I've come to terms with it being autumn again.
Love that you and your pup have such great adventures, I feel the same about mine and they make each run a blast.
Good luck on the Hardmoors!!!
Leadville, Hardrock 2012...The Pants' will house and feed you : )
Have a good Hardmoors, mate!
Thinking(just thinking, mind) of the 100 the year after next. Fancy it?
Word: embaguro - not being allowed to buy any more kit.
