I did a 3.5 mile run in the woods near my home this morning. The sun seems even brighter the colder it gets!    Alex Alex that's because the Sun is closer to the earth and it comes in at an angle. That's why its so bright. In the Summer when its further away its almost directly above us. But why am I telling you this. Your smarter that me, you should know that!!! pk

 Me at the top of Hope's Pass in CO. It was the 2nd stage of the 6 stage (6 days) TransRockies Run. This is at an elevation of 13,650 ft. I might be smiling but there isn't much air up there. Taken in August, '08 when I was 60. Alex Looks like in the winter time this is a ski area? pk

That's great scenery abelisle!
But how on earth can you run for 6 days and survive? Even if you sleep a third of the day? O_O

That's why the Bible talks about running a race, a race of endurance to gain a prize more important than a laurel wreath. And Pete, they don't ski there, just that once you get up to the timberlin (usually around 11,000 ft.) there is less trees and more open space. Alex

It just looked that way because of the way the trees were parted. pk
