Sunrise, Sunrise
Anytime I take a picture of a pretty sunrise, the Norah Jones song “sunrise” comes to my mind. A couple of weekends ago, I ran 7+ miles with my friends and when we parted ways, the sun was coming up. I slowed down my car to a crawl as I headed home (just 5 min) from where we meet to take some pictures.
There is something about a new day welcomed by a pretty sun and some clouds. Even better if there is a water body for some pretty reflections.
I’ve been enjoying our longer runs for the past few weeks. I have decided to run the half marathon again in May (see last year’s here) even though I said I would never do it again. It was so humid last year that I ended up walking a lot and hated it from mile 4 on!
It’s funny, I just reread that blog post from last May and here I am training for the same race! And it is one week later this year so I am sure it will be a hot one! Hopefully, I will be better prepared and maybe if I start slower, I can keep up my pace.
Until then, I will enjoy my morning runs with my friends. The weather changes from weekend to weekend, but our favorite is probably 50 degrees because you warm up quickly when you run.
And a sunrise like this is a great reward for a run! Happy Wednesday!
A bientôt!

So you run in the dark then? I don’t wake up at sunrise, well in the winter of course. So I will have to do with a sunset.

Yes, we do! Never alone, and we wear light vest (at least most of us do) so we don’t get hit since we run in the road some.

I wasn’t planning to, but since I probably will wake up early, I probably could!

I commend you on your commitment to running. My frankenfoot just won’t cooperate if I try to run so I just walk as fast as I can. Your photos are so gorgeous!
