Had a nice cold run this morning with Dana, Cathy, Megan, and Jacquie. We ran out to the casino and around the fountains…it really is a beautiful run. We’re t-minus 2 weeks from our marathon/half marathon! Yay! Chest was a little congested at the beginning, but it cleared up. I’ll be glad when it’s gone as I don’t feel sick at all. I just feel congested!
Afterwards we headed down to Vinaccio Coffee and sat in front of the fireplace and gabbed for an hour. Megan and I were going to run more, but the coffee sounded better. Next time 3-shot americano, though. I like my coffee to slap me around and call me names, and that was WAY to “nice” a coffee for me.
Tomorrow I think I’ll run from here to lunch in Everett. I need a long run. Haven’t had one in four weeks. Plus I have a goal of running 200 miles in 4 weeks and I have three days left to make 23 miles, so a long run tomorrow would help me reach my goal.
