I wish I knew Neve Campbell

As I was running south of Red Deer, Alberta it was at that moment that I saw the mountainous scenery from afar for the first time. It felt surreal and I enlarged my eyes lids in case I was illusions. After my brief disbelief, I relieved that were finally approaching the Rockies, a side of [...]

Lentil Soup for the Cross Country Runner’s Soul Entry #2: Cold Water (by Bryce)
