About Us
- HappyTrails
- Steve and Kathleen, Colorado Springs, CO
- We love trail running and biking in the mountains of Colorado and the desert Southwest. We enjoy spending time together, seeing new places, and meeting people who enjoy the outdoors like we do! We were thrown a little bit of a curve ball in March 2011 when Kathleen was diagnosed with Graves Disease, an auto-immune thyroid disorder. After trying to treat the disease with an anti-thyroid drug for a year and not achieving the results we had hoped for, she had radio-active iodine treatment (RAI) in February 2012 and is now in "wait and see" mode. We hope to have her back up and heading toward normal function some time during the summer of 2012 and back to true Happy Trailing. It has caused a little change of pace (slower) and a bit of a temporary life 'detour'. This is new and unexpected territory so the journey should be interesting, challenging, and hopefully still fun! 'To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.' Ecclesiastes 3:1

Fun posting. No way would I run living in Topeka if it got below 28-29. Of course always depended on the windchill as well. So no triple dog dares from this runner blogger. Sorry, but I guess you can call this recovery time. Which I am finding is equally important as a good tempo or long run.
Brr.. When the weather report includes the word "dangerous", I get scared!
I like your weather gadget in your sidebar!
You can get the weather gadget from www.weather.com and customize it for your location and activities. It's kind of cool ... er, um, cold. :)
Ok - that is ridiculous. Now you are paying the price for all that beauty in the summer. Sorry! Wanna head south? Have a spare bedroom.
Ginny - we might HAVE to start hitting up our warmer weather bloggie friends for running opportunities - Slomo in LV, Meg in So CA, The Pinkcorker in Tuscon, Tina in TX, and YOU in MS. We can make the Grand Tour. Hmmmm - good suggestion! LOL!
Stay warm and snuggly you two! Those pictures are so cute but please, keep your tongues off of metal!
It has been brutal......I wonder what actual winter will be like? ;)
Ace -
If this isn't "actual" winter, we're moving....
SUCK IT UP! :)
HEY - we never claimed to be hardcore winter folks like you and Keith!!! We just wish you would take your Banff winter back up north a bit! LOL!!
Uh, brrrrrr......
I'll quit complaining about our 36 degree overnight lows....
:)
