My last two runs....
I've been visiting with my in-laws and am running in new territory while here. We had the adventure trying to get here and the jet lagg got me behind a few days of running. So, that being said....
Friday I ran a nice gentle jog and did 2 miles. I went along a canal, past the lake, the little shopping center and around the other side of the lake. I saw some beautiful scenery including ducks, blue herons, a stork or two and some other birds I have no idea what they are. I also got some weird looks as the majority of people here don't seem to run. They ride bikes. Thankfully most of my runs are off trail so I am able to avoid them! Don't want to get run over.
Sunday I did a "long" jog and tried a new section. I ran down some walking paths, around the corner through the woods, past the wild cows standing on the sidewalks...yep, WILD COWS. LOL. I even had to go back and take pictures because this isn't something I come across running in the states.
Tomorrow my run takes me past a windmill, tulip stands, busstation, and a small village shopping center. I must say, running in the Netherlands is a whole different experience! I look forward to what this weeks runs will introduce me to...

It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.
It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
