Step Four: Go Hard And Go Home

This weekend I finally got the opportunity to go home for a few days. I am from a small town in the Adirondacks, and though I have always loved and appreciated my home town, living in the city for the summer and going to school in Westchester makes it very hard for me to visit. Despite the 6 hour drive here, I've been loving being home and especially the change in scenery. You can not beat fall in the Adirondacks. Here are some shots from my runs, since being home...

(New jacket, oh heyyy)


  And just to give you a taste of what real country life entails...



Coffee and PJ's: The Perfect combination. And totally acceptable if your my mom or anyone else this far North. 

It's been hard to keep up with my running since I've been home and since I've consumed all these apple cider donuts, but I was able to knock out 6.5 miles this morning. I could see me breathe and I was sure my fingers were going to snap off from the cold. By the end I felt like I was running in the Arctic circle (but with more cows and horses) but it was a nice break from the monotony of my usual route :)

  1. What part of the Adirondacks are you from?! I'm from Albany but spend a lot of time up north in the fall and summer!
