Trail Running With Kik

It feels like we write about Lance too much on Activeness!, so let's move on ... to his ex-wife. Trail runner Scott Dunlap took Kristin Armstrong for a trail run in Woodside, Calif., as she prepared to write an article on trail running for Runner's World.
    "She has braved more in the last six years than all of Oprah’s guests put together – loved ones with cancer, a whirlwind rise to fame, in vitro, being pregnant in a foreign country, twins, divorce, and more. On so many occasions she has risked everything for love, and won. Not to mention she’s a hottie."
Here's Kik's story on running with Dunlap.
    "I still have a lot to learn about trail running, but I gathered this much: Pretty view? Stop and see. Hungry? Have a snack. Thirsty? Drink. Long hill? Walk. Treacherous footing? Slow down. The lesson wasn't lost on me. This isn't just how to run, it's how to live."
