Good news is today was perfect weather for a run. It was in the 60’s with low humidity and nice cloud cover. I’d like to request this weather for the marathon please. I got up early and headed to the park for my run. I was super excited because I made arrangements to meet up with Michelle for one loop of my run. I just had to get through the first 8 miles. There was a race going on in the park, and there were lots of interesting people to keep me entertained. There was a guy juggling while running. Yes, juggling. I passed him twice, and he just kept on juggling. Running a marathon is THAT easy that now you do it while juggling. Some people are over achievers.
Then I met up with Michelle. It was soooooooo nice to run with her. It was just like old running times. We chatted as we plodded along. It made the time pass and before you know it, I had 13 miles done. Thanks Michelle! I had planned to go for 18, so I had one loop left. Sometimes I think of Finding Nemo when I’m running. There’s that part when they say “Just keep swimming.” I like to repeat to myself, “Just keep running.” So I just kept running. I actually felt really good and my last mile ended up being my fastest. I think that means I’m awesome ☺ Also awesome, I ran in my new shoes and didn’t get any blisters! These are my new official long run shoes!
Post run, I had to get a pastry, so I made my way to the Hungarian pastry shop. The cream puff was calling to me.
The cream was the most decadent thing ever. I thought the puff part would be puffier, but I'm no cream puff expert and it was still delicious. I’ve decided that next week, I’m going to go for 20 miles, and that deserves a Shake Shack burger and a milkshake. I’m actually looking forward to my 20 mile run!
This has nothing to do with anything, but I went to a screening of True Wolf on Friday night, and we had a special guest join us after the movie. This is Atka, and he’s a wolf.
I died a little.
