Just Another Saturday

May 14, 2011

Hi, there! 8-)

My morning started like most other Saturdays: eating my usual pre-run breakfast, meeting running friends at the South Boston Running Emporium, and cranking out a long run together.

Today’s run was a 13-mile route from Southie to the Boston Common around the Charles River and back. I ran with Nick and Ashley again, and we finished in 1:58:36 (9:07 pace).

  • Mile 1: 9:35
  • Mile 2: 9:10
  • Mile 3: 9:22
  • Mile 4: 9:14
  • Mile 5: 9:22
  • Mile 6: 9:04 <—Gu
  • Mile 7: 9:11
  • Mile 8: 9:11
  • Mile 9: 9:05
  • Mile 10: 9:11
  • Mile 11: 9:05
  • Mile 12: 8:35
  • Mile 13: 8:25

Nick and Ashley picked up the pace at the end of our run, so I pushed myself to keep up. I really love running with other people for this reason. I swear these two are going to make me a faster runner!

After the run, I refueled with Marylou’s Almond Joy iced coffee and leftover Buffalo Chicken Pizza from last night’s dinner. Clearly, proper nutrition was on my mind this afternoon.

Now, I’m heading to a friend’s bachelorette party of the night. I have a feeling it’s going to be ridiculous!!!

Tina-
I recently graduated college and am considering moving to Boston. Would you recommend it? You seem to like living there.

@Jenn: I like Boston a lot, but it’s the only city I’ve ever lived in.

You had a great run! That’s awesome your friends help push you! I train with two other girls who really keep me going and I am SO much faster with them by my side!
