HOW I RAN A HALF MARATHON IN GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK

Imagine running through the valley of a beautiful Wyoming mountain-scape. Snowy peaks ridging across the sky. Wildflower grasses rustling in the breeze. Domestic horses galloping alongside you on a nearby ranch. Sounds dreamy, right? Sometimes I can’t even believe that I ran a half marathon in Grand Teton National Park! Vacation Races I have a strict rule when it comes to running half marathons: if I&#8217…

WHAT TO DO ON YOUR VISIT TO GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK

Howdy partner, welcome to the wild west! Y’all should know by now that I’m obsessed with the wild west.

I’ve had such incredibly life-giving experiences there, and I hope that Montana treats you just the same.

HOW TO WALK ON WATER TO ST. MICHAEL’S MOUNT

Tucked away on England’s southern coast is a castle in the middle of the sea. The castle just seems to hover over the turquoise water, like an image from a fairytale. St. Michael’s Mount is one of England’s few tidal islands, meaning that when the tide is low, a natural causeway forms along the ocean floor. England has many of these islands, but St. Michael…
