10K run in 87 degrees and high humidity. Completely sapped me of all energy. Could not get up once I sat down for a few minutes…..

Ran up the Tubbs Hill this morning. The trail had continuous view of the lake. The view from Corbin point was breathtaking. Check out the trail map etched in stone at the base!!

Trail runs are tough. The heart and lungs complain while running uphill. The knees complain while running downhill. However, all of them approved of the numerous breaks I took to take in the beauty and a few pictures!!

5K run by beautiful Lake Couer d’Alene. I wish I had brought my camera…

Went for a run by the Providence river this morning. The scenes were as beautiful as they were varied.
A beautiful bridge… and a broken one…
Smartly dressed people in a boat preparing for this evening’s Waterfire show… and a homeless couple sleeping in late…
Beautiful man made buildings on one side… Geese flocking on the other side…
That was a beautiful run!

Wrong week to pack in my minimalist shoes. The hotel is near the Milwaukee airport and the entire 5K run was on concrete sidewalk 🙂 The roads were too crowded to attempt a run on asphalt 🙁

Sunday morning Chalupa run. Within the first mile, ran into Lia and Samantha! Ran with them till the two mile marker and turned around. And then when I finished up my four miles, ran into another old friend – Sanjib and his dog Julie! The post run Starbucks was one of the funniest ones in a long time!! Samaresh and his “Shiboggyan” was the highlight!!!

Say what you may about Sheboygan. But its flat terrain by the lake is a runner’s morale booster. Aided by the flat ground and the fact I was trying to get the run over with since it was raining and I needed to find a way to pack wet clothes in my suitcase, posted a personal fastest mile.
I think I should start a running club here … call it Sheboygan club, of course. I might even invite all the three residents to it 🙂

5K run to the sleepy Sheboygan Harbor… I am sure you have guessed the rest…. This is on a river called Sheboygan in the town called Sheboygan in the county called Sheboygan et cetera et cetera et cetera 🙂
