images & my running addiction



I'm obsessed with Minnehaha Falls. I just wasn't feeling motivated yesterday to get out the door and get a run in. I saw a quick news clip on the high water and suddenly I found myself bounding down river road. I was so jazzed I forgot to start my GARMIN.



STEPS! They say they are good for us!

up, down, repeat

Minnehaha Falls

(The Song of Hiawatha)

“In the land of the Dacotahs,
Where the Falls of Minnehaha
Flash and gleam among the oak trees,
Laugh and leap into the valley.
... And he named her from the river,
From the waterfall he named her,
Minnehaha, Laughing Water."

Henry Wadswoth Longfellow

The falls are so worth the run. I never tire of being near water. I feel blessed to have this sweet spot near my home. This run makes for a nice easy six mile loop with lots along the way to take in. You just never know what beautiful thing will present itself.
