Summertime is a great time to get out and see the world – whether it is by travel or just getting out and running some new routes. We are finally in our new home and I have some incredible new running routes to try. Thankfully, some of them are trails so this will help me in my quest to get back to trail running. But, they all involve hills – something I need to work more on but something I do not like!
The new running places outside my home
Yesterday, my grandfather passed away. He was the first Charles (my father as junior, me as the third, and my son as the fourth) and also the original deal hunter in our family. I was fortunate to have been able to have seen him many, many times and to have learned many wonderful lessons from him over the years. He was a very intelligent man that passed along many lessons of character and hard work to his family. He will be very missed and I am thankful for the time that I did get with him over the years.
