Big news today. I ran 8 miles outside and didn’t die.
Though I kind of thought I was going to during miles 6-8.
You can tell I was dying by my even slower slow splits.
I was glad I got to run outside on my fav new beautiful trail, though. We all know that long runs on the treadmill can seem like torture.

On Saturday afternoon, Tuna and I went to the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria to check out his sister-in-law’s awesome art exhibit.
It was pretty cool that we got to tour the exhibit with the artist!
Afterwards we headed over to RedRocks Pizzeria for some beer and fancy pizza.
I sampled the Lagunitas Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’ Ale (not gonna lie, I picked it just because of the name) and it was delish.
It’s a good thing that the pizza was amazing, because Tuna and I were pretty pissed about our appetizer. We experienced a terrible injustice when our “bacon wrapped scallops” order arrived with ONE measly scallop.
We ate our nine dollar scallop in one bite.

New obsession = Homeland.
If you haven’t started it yet, you have to. End of story.
Let’s cross our fingers that I wake up tomorrow! It always seems harder to get out of bed the day after a long run. My clean sheets are calling – catch ya later!
Tell me about your weekend! What did you do?
Congrats on 8 miles! And on not dying! Tho’ it must be hard to get out of bed today–dark, icy rain….even without running the day before. I used to work a block from the Torpedo Factory–often walked through there at lunchtime. Even took some art classes there–neat place.
I know! I remember going with you there when I was little.
1 scallop?! What the F??!! Congrats on the 8 miles!!!!
WTF is right. Thanks, girl!
