The views of my run...

I cut down the pictures I took from 46 to 20 and I could have taken more if I had cleared the memory card before the run and not after. I hope this gives you an idea of how much I like looking at this stuff.

This is the front of my block, good old W block.

This is the view looking out from my block onto part of Horwood. On sunny mornings its a nice view for run preparation. I normally stop and stare out here while I get everything settled and turn on my iPod running app.

This is the observatory walk, which runs behind my dorm and besides being the way I get to and from my classes most of the time is also how I start my runs.

After I go up a gnarly hill and pass Lindsey hall, I see this farm on the left and it tells me that I am about to get away from campus for a bit. I always love seeing the sun over the farm.

Then I cross the street here.

And start up this path which takes me towards Keele Village and away from campus and this is when I really feel like my run starts because its when I start to clear my head and worry less.

Then I turn right away from Keele Village and onto this country road.

With a beautiful church and cemetery,

and very British speed signs.

I pass another farm, but this one actually has animals!

I really like the signs.

And they will help me figure out where I ran on google maps!

I love the sun over all the green, it makes me happy and reminds me of Oregon.

Then I pass a Golf Course.

This picture I have to say is about 10,000 times better in person. You see Newcastle-Upon-Lyme from up on a hill and its just so cool. I'm a little annoyed at my camera for not doing the view justice.

This is my favorite sign because to stay on the path you actually have to run under the sign and it is tall enough that I can run under the sign.

I like this sign two, the sidewalk is split between humans and bikes.

Finally this traffic circle says I am heading back into Keele campus.

This is the great brick Keele University sign, that I really wish I could sit on top of and take a picture with but that didn't happen.

This is another (a different one I promise) traffic circle heading back into campus.

I go up and back down a hill, pass one final traffic circle and then I'm back to my dorm. All in all it is 2.5 ish miles of nice things to look at and signs that make me smile.
