Ambiana ran in the Girls Challenge Race at the Vermont Cross Country Championships this past Saturday in Thetford Vermont. Both the U-32 Boys & Girls Teams won their Div. II State Championship races and are headed to New Englands in 2 weeks,
Ambiana ran a fun race and we enjoyed running from point to point to cheer her on, Being a cross country parent is so much fun! It was a beautiful day and we surprised Ambiana with the whole family turning out to see her run.
Hobart Cluster Loop Hike +
On Friday I hiked up Hobart. It was a beautiful sunny day and with the leaves off the trees the views were expansive. On the way back I thought I was hiking to Little Hobie but ended up on a summit to the East and thus discovered Hobie III and Hobie IV. I call the hike the Hobie Cluster Loop

Some stunning cliffs on the way down Hobie
Halloween 5K
On Sunday Colleen and I ran on the Halloween 5K in Montpelier. Colleen dressed up as a loon. I was inspired by the Cross Country Meet on Saturday and did not dress up as I wanted to run a fast race.
I started off fast and kept up the pace and finished 3rd overall (out of 42) with a time of 21:15 and got to stand on the podium and won a $10 gift certificate to Onion River Outdoors which sponsored the race. Here are the results
