6 miles tempo / 50:40 / 8:26 avg pace
*3 miles at 7:45 pace. My actual times were 7:48, 7:57, and 7:57. I struggled with the last 2 tempo miles. I hate having to do 2 hard days back-to-back but I’ll be away this weekend so I had to get it done.
As promised, here’s part II of our weekend!
Saturday started out perfect…with a 3-mile run in Avalon with Sara! I’m training Sara and her 2 co-workers for the Philly Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon. Sara is superwoman – works full-time, mom of 3 (oldest is 7!), and she’s training for her 4th half marathon. This run is exactly what I needed after my 20-miler on Friday. We had a great run and got to gawk at the many gorgeous homes along the water.
We spent the majority of Saturday on the beach and sipping cocktails along the water. Ahhhh…
Saturday night was more drinking and dancing…best described in pictures 🙂
It was an awesome weekend and I can’t wait to do it all over again in 1 month at Amanda’s wedding!
Cookie cake! I can’t remember the last time I saw one of those 🙂
Whenever I met moms of 3 who run, I’m impressed. It’s super hard with just one!
Thanks for the shout out. .. this is one of Sara’s co-workers training for the half in September! I feel almost famous. I did a 5-miler on Saturday and took your advice about drinking the chocolate milk post-run. It was so amazing. It didn’t even feel like I ran. Whatever the milk/chocolate combination is, it’s AMAZING! I’m a believer. And like you said, who really needs an excuse to consume more chocolate? Thanks for the inspiring words, tips and updates!
I love bachelorette parties!!! It is like the ultimate girls night out!!! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun.
Girls nights are the BEST, and bachlorette parties are the cream of the crop! You ladies all look gorgeous, glad you had a fun night! I love running and seeing gorgeous houses and going “shopping”.
