Columbia is the capital city of South Carolina. It’s home to the South Carolina State House, a Greek Revival building set in gardens dotted with monuments. Riverbanks Zoo & Garden is a huge park with animal enclosures and botanical gardens. A diverse collection spanning centuries is on display at the Columbia Museum of Art. Dating to 1823, the Robert Mills House is a mansion and museum surrounded by ornate gardens.
The city is located approximately 13 miles (21 km) northwest of the geographic center of South Carolina, and is the primary city of the Midlands region of the state. It lies at the confluence of the Saluda River and the Broad River, which merge at Columbia to form the Congaree River. Columbia is home to the University of South Carolina, the state's flagship university and the largest in the state, and is also the site of Fort Jackson, the largest United States Army installation for Basic Combat Training. Columbia is also located 20 miles west of the site of McEntire Joint National Guard Base, which is operated by the U.S. Air Force and is used as a training base for the 169th Fighter Wing of The South Carolina Air National Guard. Columbia is also the location of the South Carolina State House, which is the center of government for the state. In 1860, the city was the location of the South Carolina Secession Convention, which marked the departure of the first state from the Union in the events leading up to the Civil War.

The 2016 Dam Run to Irmo 10k - Full Race
This was the 30th annual of the Dam Run from Lexington to Irmo, both near Columbia, South Carolina. As advertised, it was a fast 10k with a beautiful view of Lake Murray from the Dreher Shoals Dam.
There were a lot more runners and participants on the course than I originally expected, but more runners, the more enjoyable it becomes. The mood was pretty festive, especially for a non-gimmicky race.
And considering that I did a 5k race the night before, I was a little worried about how I would finish this 10k race a little over 12 hours from completing the first one.
Saluda River Kayak Trip SC
This is a camping trip friends and I went on in March. We put in on the SC Saluda River for a two day getaway. We paddled 6 hours and passed through 2 counties camping half way. I made this video so we would be able to look back on good times in the future
