Old Town Ashburn

If you blink you'll miss this place. This is by far the smallest "Old Town" designated area I've ever seen - it's literally about a block in size. Nonetheless, it's a major stop on the W&OD trail where bikers can rest up and pick up a snack at Carolina's BBQ Brothers.  Along the trail is the Old Ashburn Mill which is now an antique furniture store.  There are also a couple of other stores and a historic fire station and post office to check out. Here are some photos I made below. 

Need. to. run...

These shoes (Nike Vomero +5) are dying to get out of that door. They've been through a couple of 10Ks, 10 milers and a half marathon...they're barely broken in.  They just need to a runner to get them going.

With the cold weather it's been a challenge for me to run outside. I tried doing the treadmill thing at the gym but that gets boring. I'll need to plan out my races for the year to get myself motivated? What races do you have planned for this year? What shoes do you run in?

26th Annual Kennedy Center Open House Arts Festival

Well if you haven't figured it out, I'm taking a break from the nine to five, hence the daily post. I only have another week of this then I'm back to the daily grind.

Since it's been a cold winter, I went through my archives to dig up some photos from summer. I found these photos taken from the 26th Annual Kennedy Center Open House Arts Festival. It's a great event to watch performers of all ages and genres give it their all.  I also made a quick movie from some video I took during the event.
