I'm finding that fall is different. The first weekend here in mid September broke records with highs above 95 degrees. The following weekend found six inches of snow on the ground and temperatures staying under 40 degrees. Yet the day after the snowfall most of it melted as the sun returned with temperatures rebounding into the 70's. Fortunately the extremes abated and unbelievably gorgeous fall weather ensued with low humidity and nary a cloud in the sky.
Many women run here.
The annual Bolder Boulder 10K has more women finishers than men and I find I see more females than males on my daily runs. Being female and being fit seem to be synonymous in this town. This is definitely a haven for female athletes. The neat thing is that these women come in all sizes and all speeds. No one seems to particularly care about their competition as they are doing it for themselves.
