Hi. First post. I actually spent two years in Idaho back in the early 80's on a bicycle. You can probably guess what I was doing...anyways, after spending the past thirty years in SoCal, I'm nearing retirement and ready to make some plans. My wife and I are runners and bike riders and that is a big part of our fitness routine. We love the outdoors, skiing, hiking, camping, and Idaho is starting to look very interesting again. Honestly, I never really thought I'd want to return, but after traveling around the country it looks better and more interesting to me. Any runners in Boise? Is there a big running community? Ultramarathon types? How do you deal with winter time. When I was there I did ride bikes year round and I remember the snow and slush. I don't remember seeing people out running or otherwise exercising in the off season. A treadmill in a gym is not appealing. Thanks.

Big running community in Boise, the trails in the foothills and the Greenbelt are like freeways on Saturday and Sunday morning.

Lots of cycling in Boise as well, great place for both road and mountain biking.
