So we've been getting a few runs in lately. Friday evening around 7:00 p.m. we made plans to run at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday morning. Friday evening around 10:30 p.m. we cancelled those plans and decided to go either later in the day on Saturday or go Sunday morning.
Saturday morning consisted of some relaxing and bit of shopping (clothes returns) for Twin 2 & Sister Wi and walking the dogs for Twin 1. Saturday consisted of all things pumpkin. Twin 2 dropped off a pumpkin cupcake candle, pumpkin scone (courtesy of Sister Wi. Thanks Wi) and a pumpkin spice latte for Twin 1. We know, we know. We said no PSL's until Thanksgiving but how can you resist?
Twin 2 also got her first Runner's magazine in the mail. So while she enjoyed her PSL and scone she read the 40 best things to eat and drink. Note: PSLs and scones were not in the top 40.
Needless to say we did not run on Saturday. We made plans to go at 6:30 a.m. on Sunday morning. Twin 1 arrived at Twin 2's around 6 a.m. Twin 2 was texting her from her bedroom thinking she hadn't left her house yet. Low and behold she was sitting at Twin 2's kitchen table. Surprise!
The run was a good one. Better than expected as we hadn't run in a week. Once it was done it seemed like we didn't even do it.
Twin 1 went on to walk the dogs afterwards and ended up falling off a rock. Ouch.
Groceries and football the rest of the day AND anther PSL. Boot camp was cancelled due to weather.
We have our runs scheduled for the month of September. We have plans to go Monday/Wednesday/Saturday. Means we missed our run on Saturday and went Sunday instead we were wondering if we should go again on Monday so our schedule wouldn't be messed up. We usually don't run on back to back days but decided to go Monday evening as it would be easier.
We had planned to go Monday evening around 8:00 p.m. out at Twin 1's house after she had taken the dogs out after work. We decided at her house because now it is dark at 8:00 p.m. and her street has street lights. Twin 2's does not.
Twin 1's husband ended up taking the dogs out when we got off work which allowed us go running earlier. We decided to go in the trail this time as it seems like it's been forever since we have. One of Erica's co-workers, CC (who ran last year's BLT run with us and is signed up again this year) asked if she could meet us at the trail. Sure. The more the merrier. She had on her couch to 5k app and was doing 1.5 min walk/1.5 min run for a total of 30 min. Her 'turn around' was after 15 minutes which was almost to the 2k mark so we asked if she wanted to turn around or continue on. She said she would continue and we did 5k. The wind was breezy and cold on our way into the trial but nice and refreshing on the way out. You can certainly tell fall is in the air.
Another boot camp is scheduled for tonight. The plan was to go but Twin 2 has been under the weather since Monday night after the run and Twin 1 was going to go with CC but she is attending parent teacher so we'll see.
