I could easily be a lady who lunches

December 30, 2011 by Kristy 10 Comments

I definitely have this not working thing down pat.  What day is it?  Does it really matter?  Every day feels like Saturday!

I’m pretending this is my normal lifestyle – a lady who lunches – in order to avoid the reality of work come Tuesday.  Let’s review the last 24 hours…

Thursday
7:45AM – a glorious 5 mile run, although cold (41:14 / 8:15 avg pace).

10:30AM – my last PT session.  I graduated!  I’ve been going faithfully twice a week for the past 4 weeks.  My hamstring feels strong and I haven’t had a twinge of tightness in 4 weeks.  I no longer need the ART so I can just continue my exercises at home.  I must give a huge shout-out to Excel Physical Therapy (Villanova location) and my PT Desirae.  I highly recommend her and Excel.

1:00PM – lunch with Ann and Sara.  I coached Ann and Sara for the Philly RnR Half this past September (easiest coaching gig ever – both are seasoned half marathoners).  They took me to lunch to thank me!  Thanks ladies!  My goal during lunch was to convince them to run a full (Ann’s 2nd full and Sara’s 1st).  I think Ann is on board; we just need to work on Sara 😉

7:00PM – coffee with Beth.  This was a total surprise.  Beth texted me in the morning and said she would be in the area.  I’ve been friends with Beth since 1st grade and she is my pseudo sister-in-law.  She is married to Matt’s brother.  So we married into the same family (duh).  It’s awesome, having your best friend at all the family parties.  And no, Matt and I did not set-up Beth and his brother.  Ages ago, when I first started dating Matt, we all ended up at the same bar one night.  I merely introduced Beth to Matt’s brother and the rest is history 🙂

Friday
7:30AM –  10 mile “long” run (1:26 / 8:36 avg pace).  I’ve been alternating between 10 and 13 miles on Saturdays.  Beginning next week, it’s only 13 miles and up!

And…tonight Matt and I are seeing The Nutcracker and going to dinner.  Yes, I could get used to this!

Plans for NYE?  I loathe NYE…highly overrated.  We are hanging in and I’ll probably be asleep before midnight.
