Weekend Recap & Fall 2015 Races
Happy Monday! I hope that you had a wonderful weekend, mine started off with a late Friday night at my kids’ cross country meet. My new polo arrived last week and I was psyched to sport it for the first time!
The kids had a great day and our varsity boys nearly placed in the top 5 in their race! I didn’t get home until 1am so needless to say Saturday morning turned into a sleep in and run 14 miles in the heat of the day kind of day. :/ I had to stop at Jack in the Box for a water cup because I drank my entire CamelBack by halfway through the run!
The rest of my Saturday involved kicking back, taking a nice long nap, and grabbing a latte and croissant at Dripp while perusing the two latest Cooking Lights!
We got hit with another heat wave this weekend BUT I’m determined to get in the fall spirit so – I picked up a few autumn decorations and candles to spice up the apartment….
… and started the pumpkin baking extravaganza with some pumpkin pancakes yesterday morning.
Even Laci’s jumping in on the pumpkin fun!
Sunday involved church + sister time with my SIL to celebrate her new big move!
We christened the apartment with a bottle of champagne followed by dinner at Pitfire Pizza. We shared the roasted cauliflower…
… and the Burrata Pie. They were both so good and totally hit the spot!
As far as running goes I’ve been in a racing slump for awhile so I signed up for a few races over the next few months to keep me motivated. This fall you’ll find me racing @ …
