Running Across a Candy Planet

By Jim Schroeder

Running Across a Candy Planet came about first, as an account to capture the feelings I experienced during my long runs along the beach; and secondly, as a means to share my photography with a wider audience. My running journey has led me to observe many beautiful sunrises, sunsets and other beauties of nature. The photographic and poetic running journey began in Starved Rock State Park, outside of LaSalle, Illinois, in August 1999, when I was an expatriate in Australia working in the States for a spell. At sunrise, I'd run the trails before work, photograph my surroundings and write a short poem about what I saw or thought. Returning to the US in 2007 and now living in Florida I began running beaches and trails carrying a smart phone to record my adventures. I renewed my hobby of photography, combined photographing nature with running and writing poetry; the results are captured in this book.
