18 miles in 7:15 pace. I want to say these were easy miles, but they weren't exactly easy. I was tired. My legs were trashed. Could have something to do with the fact that I just completed my biggest week ever on tired legs after just running a huge PR in the 15K last weekend. We had a birthday party for Breanne this afternoon and it was a BLAST!! Lots of friends came and brought side dish to share so we had a large smorgasbord of food to enjoy. With church friends, running friends, and reading class friends, the house and yard was full of awesome people. Aaron put together a scavenger hunt with clues leading the 15+ kids all around the house and yard to find "treasure boxes" (shoe boxes) full of loot! The kids all got to fill goody bags with fun little toys and candies as a reward for their hunting. Nothing like a crew of little pirates scavenging around your house for clues and treasures...so cute! They also got to enjoy jumping on the trampoline, playing on the play-set, and stuffing their faces with cake and ice cream. Good times! After everyone left, Sara Vaughn stayed a while longer so Kiki and Bre could play and I put my feet up and enjoyed catching up with Sara. Then I took an hour and a half nap while Aaron cleaned up the mess. What a champ! |
