It snowed on us for a bit during the run so that was a fun May surprise.
I love my helix piercing but goodness gracious I regret it when my ears are cold because it hurtsssssss. I need to be smart and always wear an ear covering if it’s under 35°.
Brooke needed Yogurtland so I made that happen and of course joined her in the goodness.
Grocery store sushi makes me very happy and I might be the only one (besides Andrew) with this opinion (especially in a landlocked state ha).
Let’s cover the tangents for the day:
*How we felt after our 3 mile tempo that we told ourselves we would take conservatively before we started but didn’t take conservatively at all.
*She is closer to a pull-up than I am.
*Knox led cross-country the other day. He was so proud.
*Look at Brooke out in the real world for a few minutes! Turns out cotton candy is perfect post tonsil removal because it fully digests in your mouth.
*And this is picture is from when I really became addicted to running… My first marathon. Before this marathon, I would run off and on, but never longer than a few miles. It was this race and the training that lit the flame for me and made me want to run every day for the rest of my life. Before this, spin classes and the elliptical were my usual aerobic activities, with some running thrown in randomly but once I had that marathon training plan telling me what to do each day with a square for me to check it off… I fell hard.
Well, that is a tangent from the tangent I really wanted to talk about. I saw this picture and wondered how, in the world, I survived 26.2 miles with my phone strapped on one arm and my headphone cords flying around the whole time. These days, I want the least amount of things touching me during a marathon.
I would love to know, is there anything you used to wear or use for your training or racing that you couldn’t do now?
Piercings… have any?
-3 on each year! I had one in each year until the beginning of my mid-life crisis that started recently and I’ve considered
Have a tangent for me?
I cannot get my blog to use different-colored fonts anymore, and it is making me very sad.
