Today I went for a run and decided to take some pics along the way.
Saguaro Cactus
Going up the long hill
Cholla Cactus (also known as Jumping Cholla Cactus)
Still going up that hill...
Prickly Pear Cactus
After 1.75 miles, I finally get to the top of the hill.I went around a 4 mile loop, so of course, after going down the hill, I had to run back up to get to my goal of 5.5 miles. It was a little warm (65 degrees) but still a great run.
I am just about finished knitting another pair of socks and will have pics tomorrow.
Hope everyone has a great week!

I'd love to run in a race with you very soon! Arizona is pretty darn close to california! lets see if we can arrange something!!! Good for you getting out there and running hills! I have a 4 mile trail race next saturday-lets hope my work week doesn't beat me up!!! I'll be heading out for a trail run with velcro later! i hope you've had a great weekend!
Looks like such a nice place to run. Nice and warm and toasty. God I need some sun LOL
Cacti!!! (or is it cactuses.)
Now the only cactuses I see around here are in a pot.
Not sure I could run in that heat...
Desert stuff! I no longer live in the desert (and don't really miss it), but seeing pictures like that remind me of some good times. :)
Sometimes I love hills, and sometimes I hate them! Glad you had a good run~
Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your kind words! I love your pics! I have been to Arizona 3 times now and really enjoyed it. I also ran the Lost Dutchman 10k a few years back. And as for running in the back of the pack, I know from what you're speaking! Its definitely a different perspective, but as I said, I am going to make it a priority to enjoy myself more from now on. What is your next event?
Beautiful pictures! My Grandfather lives in Mesa!
Thanks for popping into my blog, very nice to meet you!!
Pretty!
(It snowed here yesterday).
Thanks for the pics. I love the cactus pics. WTG for running up that hill....twice!!
what cool pictures! I've never run by a cactus before, the only ones I have ever seen have been for sale at the store. (can you tell I don't travel much!) Thanks for sharing your run with us!

Looks like you have a nice route to run!! Nice!
Wow good job! I canNOT wait until I can run for that long, and up hills! wow!!
What a BEAUTIFUL run! Thanks for sharing your sunshine with us. :)
Oh the scenery you have. I just look at the same houses over and over when I run. Only so many windows you can look in. HAHA
Those hills bring back way too many bad memories, LOL!!! You are my hero for braving them again!
GREAT RUN!!!!!!!!!!
The heat is really starting to suck :X
Great photos! I am with Marcy....I need the sun!
How's the training going???? Are your doing Boot camp still? I'm going to put a list of races together, hopefully this weekend, and see if we can find a race to run in together. i was hoping for the Half in San Fran and a tiffany box-but since I didn't get in that wont be happening....we'll find something
Thanks for taking us along on your run. It looks very pretty... but I wouldn't enjoy the heat.
Thanks for stopping by!! I loved Arizona this year, the RocknRoll Races were awesome.
Looking forward to returning sometime soon and really want to see more of the country, it looks stunning from your "picture" perfect run!!!
