Catherine and I did our last Saturday training in the canyon together.  It was a gorgeous morning. The trees are unbelievable this year, so much red and orange.  We wondered where all the regulars went, the trail was pretty empty considering the time of year.  We had a fantastic run, both up and down the canyon easy breezy 8:40's.  It's been a while since I even made plans to do fun stuff on a Saturday in anticipation of recovering from hard, long runs.  But after running, I saw Josse who worked her magic on my legs, went to the farmer's market and ate a bushel of fresh nectarines by myself (plus a couple of tamales with the kids), and fitted my kids for their skis.  Oh the canyon, oh the famer's market, oh the excitement for SG!   I love this time of year.  Now, I'm going to the lovely warm shade of my backyard to read a book and maybe take a nap on the hammock while kids play out front with their friends.  Did I say how much I love this time of year?
