Borderland in Easton, the Blue Hills Skyline Trail, Lynn Woods are all great. Just use bug spray and, if you're going in the evenings, consider bringing a friend. Or shoot me an email -- I'm always up for getting out of town and into the woods!Meghttp://twitter.com/mreilsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-20097854961462986612011-07-08T17:16:18.153-04:002011-07-08T17:16:18.153-04:00Waban pond looks awesome!

Not that I would know ;)<br />I LOVE runs like that when you just take in the scenery and enjoy being out there, running. So glad you decided to not run a fall marathon. There is no need to force something like that. I know you want to PR but you'll have time to do that in your life. I promise :)Elina (Russian Bites)http://www.russianbites.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-7731518812486199882011-07-08T15:10:44.157-04:002011-07-08T15:10:44.157-04:00Beautiful photos!

I think it makes a lot of sense, and there's no reason to force something that isn't right for you right now. Whether you're training for a 5k or an ultra marathon or nothing at all, it really doesn't matter - running is a gift and a wonderful thing in your life, and at any given point, it will meet you wherever you're at.<br />Your pictures of the lake are so beautiful - it makes me want to run there!! My favorite places are the Charles River, the reservoirs near me, the Boston Marathon route, and some of the nice local high school tracks near me.<br />I hope we get to run together soon :)Coreyhttp://runnerscookie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-76504878349702797572011-07-08T13:51:09.514-04:002011-07-08T13:51:09.514-04:00Looks like a pretty run!

I've been thinking about my own racing schedule for next year a lot lately. And I'm really not sure I want a marathon to be part of it. I had some guilt at first, but then I remembered running a marathon doesn't define anyone as a runner. Just do what makes you happy! And if that's just a few 3 milers a week, then you're still hardcore and awesome!Jenhttp://www.runnerstrials.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-37740901711347005732011-07-08T07:38:22.336-04:002011-07-08T07:38:22.336-04:00I live in Central Ma and love running the Holden R...I live in Central Ma and love running the Holden Reservoir--its beautiful, peaceful, mostly shaded and a pretty quite area to do a morning run.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02651913617975837101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-8567227608434372272011-07-07T20:51:51.363-04:002011-07-07T20:51:51.363-04:00Why have I never run this route?

Thanks...Yeah, I know I'm pretty awesomesauce... Thanks Lizzy!<br /><br />This is a great post - no, an epic post! ;) I love that we are on the same wavelength with running right now. And it's amazing how much a little change in scenery can do for you. Last week when I was in California, I woke up each day excited to run. This week I've been reluctantly slogging through my workouts. I think it's 100% related to the environments.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm glad you were able to get out to Lake Waban. I've never been there, but I know Wellesley is beautiful, and the pictures of the run look so pretty! You should definitely try to get out there more often. Beats running around the burbs, right?? :)Laurenhttp://www.healthontherun.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-6563141436775232172011-07-07T18:01:37.173-04:002011-07-07T18:01:37.173-04:00I am actually loving shorter runs right now.

All of the training distances are manageable, so it's just fun. Sometimes running is a bigger part of our lives than others, but it's still something that's always there for us at the end of the day.<br /><br />I want to run Lake Waban with you!Beckyhttp://www.beckontherun.comnoreply@blogger.com
