December 3 – Moment.

Pick one moment during which you felt most alive this year. Describe it in vivid detail (texture, smells, voices, noises, colors).

Fall day rich in color.
Crisp, clean air.
We stood there, in awe.
Just stood there.
Speechless.

It was the day before my longest running race, post-kankle. Trying to not think too hard about a 13+ mile trail run that begins by running up a ski slope.
