It’s almost that time of the year—time to set the clocks back an hour on Sunday, November 2nd at 2 a.m. While for many the “fall back” switch is easier than the “spring forward,” it can still take days before your body’s internal clock adjusts to the time change.

Cross the Diagonal to Boulder Valley Ranch Trails
One of the most invigorating things you can do during the summer months is to get out and enjoy the scenery. At The Habitat, our Boulder apartments near the Diagonal are a wonderful starting point for your adventure.
While there are a number of excellent trails for you to choose from, be sure to take a look at the Boulder Valley Ranch Trail System. It’s one of the area’s most popular because it offers spectacular views and links into a number of other trails. This means you can hike, bike, or ride a horse just as long and as far as you’d like.
Further, since the trails are wide and smooth, this makes them a great place for beginners to start their adventures in hiking. Without a doubt, the whole family will enjoy the views of Boulder Reservoir, the smooth and calm waters of Coot Lake, and the magnificent vistas over the farms and towns below. Since the trail is just outside of town, it only takes a few minutes to get there from here.

Sign Up to Race the Sprint Triathlon at Boulder Reservoir
Feel like life is a little slow right now? Are you in need of a little excitement and a reminder that you can choose to live life in the fast lane when you want? If that sounds like you, maybe you should lace up your shoes, put on your running gear, and run one of the Boulder races this year.
The next race coming to town will be on June 1, 2014. That’s the day the Boulder Sprint Triathlon will take place at the Boulder Reservoir. From 4:30 to 11 am, the best runners, riders, and swimmers in the area will be competing for places on the pedestal, and you are more than welcome to sign up and show off your athletic prowess.
The course will consist of a 750-meter swim and a 17.2-mile bike ride, and it will be capped off with a 5K run that will take you around the east side of the Reservoir. If you’re up for it, you will never forget the experience.
Full of outdoor adventure and competitive events, Boulder is an ideal location for the runner or athlete, and our Boulder apartments with a heated pool, trail, and tennis courts make it easy to stay active right at home.
