We are Boston Strong

Today we remember, today we run.
There are no words to express my love of the running community uniting over such a horrible event. I can’t wait to virtually cheer on thousands of runners at the Boston Marathon this year.
I feel honored to be apart of this wonderful running community. Today we stand and run Boston Strong.

Yesterdays run was another freaking awesome one! I am going to buy stock in Tums, since they have seriously turned my training around in the best way possible. Funny how something so simple makes a huge difference.
The Wave Hitogami’s are run-life changing as well. I have decided I need them in every color Mizuno makes and a life time supply of them sent to my door. #agirlcandream
I did 4.25 miles with some hills thrown in for added self torture and negative splits. 9:15, 9:04, 9:02, 8:54, 2:02. Boom!
PS these Pro Compression sleeves are my favorite ones ever. They go with all of my running gear which is obnoxiously loud just like me and I can wear my favorite running socks. #bestofbothworlds
Then I spent the rest of the day showing Lu the coolest beach spots. First stop was Scenic Drive in Carmel. AKA my favorite drive around here. Pacific Grove is the second fav and we will totally hit that up this week as well. Don’t you worry, we will be climbing beach rocks and checking out tide pool at low tide as well.
We hung out at the beach for awhile watching the waves crash, then we hit up Trader Joe’s for some grocery shopping. Lu loves TJ’s so it was fun to watch her pick out treats for the week. Some of her favorites are BBQ Pop Chips, chili spiced mango fresh pineapple.
Step mother of the year award goes to me. Ice cream for dinner and manicures is all it takes to get such an elaborate award.

Mike sent me this last weekend. I’m starting to think he’s smarter than I thought.
What do you consider a great run?
Anytime I don’t feel like I’m going to yack, running with fresh legs and feeling like I could go forever.
What did you have for dinner last night?
Do you have step kiddos?
