Sunny's Home. 5:35 a.m. Mishel rode with me over to Sunny's place off of Tacoma Point on Lake Tapps. We met up with Niki there, however, Sunny slept in on accident and she didn't run with us. Us 3 had a good run even though I was very tired. I didn't sleep too well last night; kept waking up and only got 6.5 hrs of sleep-No good. I was wakeboarding/tubing the evening before so that probably had something to do with that, plus a late dinner and some homemade icecream! We ran around the neighborhood on Tacoma point, over to Lakeland Hills plaza and a loop off of 62nd street and back around. Then we went to the 7/11 gas station and back that way to Tacoma point.The weather was misty/light rain but actually felt good later in the run. Started out cold but warmed up fast. It was a challenging run because I was tired and there were some hills. My calf didn't bother me at all though. I was just sore on my lower back from tubing and my arms too. When we got back Sunny was waiting with waters and had us come in for some coffee and pie. She was so sorry she slept in and didn't hear the alarm. We drank our coffee on the back porch and looked at the tranquil water....how awesome is that! How nice to live right on the lake!!!
