Weekend | Cabin in the Woods

This past weekend was spent in the Trinity Alps — a complete three days of disconnect from the outside world: stomping through the snow on hidden trails / sipping vegan peppermint hot cocoa / playing ping pong / laughing through a game of Cards Against Humanity / adamantly completing a 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle / cuddling by the ornate wood stove / enjoying sweet company.

The marathon relay is this Sunday! Training has been bleak, meaning I have plans for this to be a “fun run” versus a race.
