How to Start Snowshoe Running 101: A Beginners Guide for Trail Runners

How to Start Snowshoe Running 101: A Beginners Guide for Trail Runners My Snowshoe Running Story When I was young my family and I would go for hikes up mountains in the winter with snowshoes. I loved going out and snowshoeing up mountains. (Okay, maybe I loved butt sliding down the mountains a little bit …

Somehow ended up carrying a snowboard while skiing Somehow ended up carrying a snowboard while skiing. 🤔😂

A super awesome day in these beautiful mountains with breathtaking views. 

Being in the mountains is always a good reminder that everything we need is within us (and hopefully in our backpacks). 😉💕

I love France. I truly do. So, after officially I love France. I truly do. 

So, after officially spending a solid plus year in France I have put together some observations of the culture and the “French way”. Let me know if you can think of anything else to add to this list!!!!! 

** I mean these observations with very much love to the frenchies 😂❤️ ** 

1. Unspeakable Food
In France it is very difficult or very expensive to find:
- Dill Pickles 
- Peanut Butter
- Hershey’s chocolate
- Black beans
- Maple Syrup
*if you know of a place where I can find these please DM me 😉 

2. Drive Fast or Get Off The Road
French drive fast. And from my understanding it’s because they must get to their destination as soon as possible because driving is not a “pleasure”. 🤔

3. They’re 15 Years Behind😅 
The bureaucracy is very frustrating. Everything they do is slow, written by hand on paper, and if you need something you have to call which means being on hold is something you get used to. 😂 

4. 6/6 
3 hours of working in the morning then a 2 hour lunch break followed by another 3 hours of working. And NOTHING is open on Sunday. Don’t forget your tampons. 🤧

5. « Pleasure » 
My favorite thing about French is that they live in the moment. They don’t seem to worry or care about too much except for just loving and enjoying life. Which means everything they do is with « pleasure » (as they say;). 

In conclusion, these things make France so unique, and I love these things about France. And I LOVE the French people.

Alors, c’est la vie, mes amis. 💕

“They always talk about the city lights. Let’s “They always talk about the city lights.
Let’s talk about my runs at night.”

Are you psyched for running in the snow?!
