Lake McMurtry ~Stillwater, OK

We camped at Lake McMurtry to check out the trails for a trail run my husband was going to do.

There are over 27 miles of trails there!

There are two sides of the lake you can camp on so check out there site before going.

Sweet boy.

They have nice signs letting you know how many miles you have done.

Break time!

Here are some pics from the weekend we went back for the Trail run.

Practising his roping skills the night before the run.

My husband starting his 25k trail run!

The boys and I walked along the lake while Nick ran the trails.

He finished!

It was a pretty nice place to visit.

They are under new management so things are still getting a bit of a face lift.

I would not mind going again though.

We still need to hike those trails on the east side of the lake!

Tatur Snake Run 2013

The start of the 6 hour race.

Those kids are amazing.

They look like they could run forever.

This is the start of the race my husband did.

It is 3 hours long.

You run as many miles as you can in 3 hours.

I actually liked this race since it was at Turkey Mt.

That place just feels like home to me.

I am probably spending too much time there if that is how I feel…

I had these two little hoodlums with me for 3hrs while my husband ran.

We hiked while Nick raced.

They were doing laps so we would head back in time to watch Nick run by.

GO BABY GO!

They needed a quick snack break.

Then more hiking.

More watching…

Nick did over 14 miles!

He just started running a couple months ago!

I am blown away with how far he can run already.

I have run a little bit with him and the boys and can already tell a difference on our hikes.

I feel like I am not winded as easily.

Do you run?

Trail running is something I have always wanted to do.

I just like to do anything that involves me feeling free in the woods.

I feel like a kid playing when I run in the woods.

Until my adult body feels like it is going to collapse!

But for that whole minute of running I feel free…
