I participated in a trail run race. I’ve run trail before, but this is the first race I’ve done. Pictured is the most technical part of the trail. The altitude beat up my lungs—they couldn’t keep up with the rest of my body. Proud to have finished the 9.8 kilometers despite my lungs failing me. 💪🏽

I took this photo on a cool and windy Monday, October 27, 2025, from the south side of Bennett Mountain in southwestern Idaho.
A sluggish Bennett Creek is on the right side of the pic.
And yes, there are power lines running across the hillside.

I know —it’s awful.. #AISlop but, this so amazing—#sora #AI Oh my. Happy Halloween —especially to all the cyclists & bike commuters out there #sora #bike #nevada #highdesert
