Colorado Springs Trails: August 2010
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 1, 2010. The Cottonwood trail will in the future stretch from the Greenway Trail east for many miles. Right now the section from the Greenway Trail is nonexistant. I parked at Cottonwood park and went east about a mile and a half. It is a nice, paved trail that would be great for running with stroller, roller bladeing and general family fun. At the start, the park offers many amenities for family fun. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States.

Colorado Springs Trails: Finally...
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2010/10/finally.html
Sunday, October 10, 2010. Today I finally found the trail that took me to the top of the Rampart Range Ridge that we look at everyday. With the weather cooling, I thought it a good day to head up the hill to see what I could find. One thing about this route. It is tough. The climb is steep so up and down is work. There is a lot of area at the top that looks to be explorable. I think that the old Palmer Trail comes through there and also I hope to get over to the wreck site(s). With Fall and the cool weat...

Colorado Springs Trails: July 2009
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 10, 2009. I was reading a recent article about crosstraining and what it can do for a person. I think because I have been having issues with a sore heel, the article attracted my attention. There are many types of cross training, but I think I am most interested in aerobic training which means bike, swim, fast hike or indoor machines such as a stair climber. Links to this post.

Colorado Springs Trails: July 2010
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 26, 2010. Recent changes to my life will hopefully give me more time to spend on my blog and website. After deciding that 40 hours per week in a part time job was a bit much, I found a real part time job that leaves my with weekends free. Based on this new found time, the past 2 weekends have taken me to the "Monument Preserver" and "Fox Run Regional Park". The thing I like about these two courses is that they have trees so for summer, this is a plus to avoid the direct sun.

Colorado Springs Trails: September 2009
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 22, 2009. Aside from this, the trail is narrow and rocky but my main point here is that as we ran it, you could sense that fall was coming quickly. Behind Mt Herman which is Limbaugh canyon, a small furry caterpillar displayed its furryness as to say that this winter will be a colder and snowier one. Typically, we can expect a lot of nice days for the next several months even if we get spells of snow and rain. A perfect opportunity to enjoy our abundance of trails. Happy running. Dedic...

Colorado Springs Trails: October 2009
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 31, 2009. The area is a combination of secluded property between the old Queens Quarry and the Flying W Ranch property. From my studies, it looks like 22 acres of it is part of a small ranch that was bought a number of years back and used to build a private school on the front side. This is now a church. The far west area is part of the Pike National Forest. Has detailed information about the trails so check it out. Because of the private land involve here, I caution everyone to be resp...

Colorado Springs Trails: December 2009
http://farrunner.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 24, 2009. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. This is the season to be thankful for all the blessing that we have here in Colorado Springs. It is so nice to be able to go 5-10 miles and be into wilderness / backcountry trails. We have such an abundance of trails to chose from and I enjoy every day and trail that I find myself on. In revising some of my incline pictures on the website, I have tried to include more photos of some of the people I have had encountered on the trails. I thin...
