Summer Feisty Phoenix Day 1

Sat 15th August 2026

A person in running attire jogs along a paved path lined with brick and metal railings, under a bright, partly cloudy sky at sunset with trees and fields in the background. A large tree with golden autumn leaves stands beside a path covered in fallen leaves. Sunlight filters through the branches, casting a warm glow and shadows across the scenic, peaceful walkway. A calm river lined with trees in autumn, reflecting the blue sky and foliage. A path runs alongside the water, with a person walking in the distance under a clear sky. An outdoor café with wooden tables and chairs on a deck, flanked by trees with autumn leaves. Signs read "Handlebar Café" and a flag says "Cadence." Two small buildings are visible in the background at sunset.
