It's crazy hot and windy here in Colorado.
Wildfires burning
air quality ever-changing
and frequently poor.
Woke to a smoky house in middle of the night
so shut off swamp cooler and closed windows.
Air was decent on Saturday and Sunday mornings
and I hit the trails early.
Saturday I was treated to coyote sightings – three in all
so stopped to watch them watch me.
I smiled the rest of the run (even on the uphill).
Because I don't run with a camera here's a coyote cousin from somewhere else:

Nature most definitely nurtures my soul.
And on days like today
when I don't want to pollute my lungs
I stay inside and look out my window.
