I was suppose to run last night, but instead of making dinner... I decided to do left overs... and instead of just warming up left overs, I decided to make a menu and set up the kitchen like a restraurant.  I think dressed up like a waiter.  I took orders, gave them a starter salad, made their meals, refilled their drinks...  and left them a bill (I got 10 kisses, and 8 hugs).  And then I send them into the girl's room so I could clean up the kitchen and get it ready for Family Home Evening.  All that took away from my running time, so I went tonight instead.

I was suppose to run 3, but when I mapped it, it turned out I was a little shy.  I'm a little bummed to learn that... but I must say, my sprint to the finish felt awesome!  I got some serious speed.  And thinking about 2 weeks ago, when I started running/training for this marathon, speeding up to finish was a real stretch.  I did the best I could, but I doubt anyone would have known the difference.  So, having said that, I'm pretty happy with my run tonight.

Happy Tuesday!

Map My Run says my route was 9.91... but I figure, with the meandering sidewalks along the mile on Brown Road, I had to have hit 10.  My husband was impressed with how fast I managed to get home... so I'm pretty happy about that. :)
