Post-run pic, of course |
Rainy rainy rainy. It was cold and soggy, but we chatted the entire 10 miles. I even made Mel run the hilly course option on the return 5 miles. Heh! It was really pretty out though. And there was a car show going on in the town, despite the rain, so it was neat seeing some classic (and gorgeous!) cars. Mel was awesome and treated me to chocolate milk and a croissant afterwards. Yum. It was delish! Very thankful that Mel has been training with me for over a year!! **Note: I got some interesting remarks about my sunglasses on Mel's recap...and I want to say that unfortunately no, it wasn't wishful thinking...I'm just a bug magnet and I need eye windshields. Hee hee! I always wear the sunglasses or glasses, even though I may tend to forget to put them on my face and end up wearing them on my head. ;)
Sunday - Trav's first father's day with Goober!
Trav & Goob |
Monday - Ran with Kerrie & our munchkins.
Quite the experience! Goober was not happy at all and so I had to stop and feed her some pears for a bit at the 2 mile mark. Still wasn't happy after eating, so Kerrie and I found ourselves pretty much sprinting with the jogging strollers. Oh boy. Goober is a Speed Demon Coach I say! I actually had to take her out and carry her for a 1/4 mile because she just wouldn't stop the big-tear crying. :( But once she was carried, all was good. Silly girl. Ooooo! And Goober started swim lessons...and she LOVES it! Yay!
Grumpy Goob, happy T Jr. |
