Spent a couple of days at Benn's house over the weekend into Monday. We got to go see Harry Potter 6 with his brother, Jonny, and then out to dinner on Sunday. I love spending time with the Griffins- it was another fun day! I had to go back home tonight but got to go to Benn's race beforehand at Camp Saratoga. He raced with two of his friends from work. I did a warm up with them and then did a brisk 0.8 mile walk on Scout Rd. to Edee Rd. intersection near Camp Saratoga. It's really lovely in this part of NY and I felt quite peaceful there. There were tons of wild flowers that I was tempted to pick, but instead just enjoyed them exactly where they were :) Walking back, I checked the time and decided to take a run back to the finish line to catch some of the first finishers and so on. So, I did a 0.6 mile run and, on the way, saw some racers running across the road section of the trail. Not knowing many details of the race, I didn't know that they had to cross a road during it and was in the right place at the right time to see Benn striding by. I gave him a yell of encouragement and I kept on jogging my way to the finishing area. I cheered on the finishers and got to watch Benn and his friends finish. Then I went for a cool down with Benn going to other way on Scout Rd. A humid but beautiful day :) |
