I must go where the Eagle flies and the Wolf runs.

The spirit of the woods sends out a strong vibe. You can sense it in the sunrise, sunset, and the wind. It attracts you like a beacon light to a ship going into safe harbor. I realize not everyone has this same feeling. You mention it to some and generally the reaction is

ickkkkkk.

Oh there are those who use the woods for their own reasons.  Some good and some bad. I can keep going on and on about this but I would only get into trouble and that is not the intent of this blog post.

The premise of this scribbled writing is to tell you my values of trail running.

One afternoon I started to think of what I get out of this passion of mine. Before I knew it I had quite a list.

Trail Running= 

freedom, 

spiritual, 

internal smile, 

soulful journey, 

soaring, 

natural high, 

guts, 

strength, 

rain mist face, 

pine scents, 

earthy, 

wind, 

mind clearing, 

and the list just seems to grow.

The feeling of freedom.  No restrictions trying to harness you.  Like  wild horses running on the open plains and mountain valleys.

Trail running = Freedom
