Yesterday I set out for a 7.5-miler but ended up doing 10 miles (!)....and it was awesome! I swear I had runner's high the entire time (or I was just having a blast taking pictures). I took my CrackBerry along to some pics so you can see this gorgeous city. If you ever travel to DC, pack your running shoes. How else can you see all of this in one trip?

ReplyDeleteawesome!!!
ReplyDeleteCan I just say that I LOVE your blog?! I lived in DC this past summer and did research in a chemistry lab (I'm a senior in college) and absolutely loved my time there. Great pics and posts-I like your perspective!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I like to take scenic runs when I'm visit a city, but man, you are lucky to live in DC! Great sites every where you turn. I think I'm going to have to try that here in Florida...not that many great sites to see but there's always the beach :-)
ReplyDelete@My Sensei Oooooh, I'd love to see beach running pics!
ReplyDelete@Anonymous Thank you so much, you're so sweet!
