This weekend, my lifetime mileage reached the grand total of 74,716 miles - or just over three times around the earth's circumference! I haven't actually traveled around the earth's circumference, but my running has taken me on a marvelous journey.
From my early days of running (skinny, pre-momhood)

Better than races, the sights and sounds of all of the places I've had the good fortune to run through.
Exotic locations

Australian garden trails |

Alaskan bog trails |
 |
Hawaiian Kilauea lava trail |
And mountain tops
 |
Manitou Incline - Colorado |
 |
Appalachian Trail in Tennessee - Smoky Mountain National Park |

Coast to Coast

Loooong runs right through the middle of the U. S. of A.
And a run I never tire of - along Little Traverse Bay of Lake Michigan
Would any of this be possible without the man of my life, Mister Kendall?
I don't think so! I am one lucky woman with very happy feet!
