Good morning! Yet, another rainy run this morning with the jogger, but there is hope on the horizon. Weather looks sunny and warm this weekend which means Farmers Market Run here I come! My friend Hallie and I used to do this run quite a bit each summer whether we were running or walking while pregnant. The run starts at PSU and runs up Terwilliger past OHSU. It is a great hilly run with amazing scenery of Portland and Mt. Hood. You can either run out and back or make a loop and come back down Barbur Blvd. The hills are challenging, but a great workout.
The best part of the run.... The coffee, baked good and walk around the farmers market when you are done. I love the atmosphere at the PSU market. The are several great markets in the Portland area through the week, but this is one of my favorites. The vendors, food and entertainment are great. The only drawback can be the crowds, especially during berry season. So, we go for the run early and a walk at the market as soon as it opens at 8:30am. Check out the link to the markets.

Do you have a favorite market? If so, let me know which one and why. I have been to the LO market, the Interstate Market and the Pearl Market which I also enjoy..
Happy running!
