Thank You Everyone!

So yesterday I met with a friend who constantly does biking or hiking treks across large parts of the U.S. He shared some experiences and gave us some tips on what to do to get sponsors and stuff like that.

I would also like to thank all the people who have already liked the Running the Country Facebook page. That is really cool, because the page has only been up a few weeks and it has over 150 likes.

Feel free to tell other people about this page so they’ll Like it too.

Running Sitka’s Trails

Happy New Year 2013!

As far as I know, no father and son team has ever run across America together. David and I want to change that. Of course, I don’t want to hold David back, so I’ve got one beautiful and busy year to get ready. Sitka ain’t much for roads, but that’s okay, neither am I. I’m a trail runner and Sitka is a trail runner’s paradise. In the past four days, I’ve run three runs: Indian River Falls, Beaver Lake, and Picnic Rock, for a total of 30 hilly miles. That’s not as much as we’ll be running when we cross the U.S.A., but it’s a good start. And it was done on great trails with great company, including, Jeff, Drew, Els, Russell, David, and Angel. (Thank you all!)

Photographers dream of taking pictures in places as beautiful as Sitka’s trails. I’m lucky enough to run those trails every chance I get. I snapped the following photos on the Indian River and Beaver Lake runs.

Enjoy!
