How is it TUESDAY already Where did the weekend go? Guess that’s what happens after an awesome weekend! Here are a few scenes from an awesome weekend of running (a 10K race plus 5K before), and wine-ing. Yes,I may have made up that word …
Friday night included my favorite pre-long run meal – a kalebouli and hummus wrap from Flaming Ice Cube.
you’ve seen this picture before… my favorite- kalebouli! (in the background is the artichoke appetizer we got!)
Saturday started EARLY at least for me. The 6 a.m. alarm was NOT welcome, but we had plans to fit in a 3-4 mile run before our 10K race we had signed up for. We only ended up getting in a 5k beforehand, but that put the day at 9.3ish miles. Not too bad! Oh, and I think that 10K is my least favorite racing distance. Too quick to enjoy/pace yourself (like a 10 miler or half) and too long to go all out (like a 5k).
Being silly with B an Mary after our run.
Post-race photo opp! So cold.
Saturday afternoon came and it was time to head out for my froworker Cari’s bachelorette party! Of course, we all know what happens at bachelorette parties STAYS at bachelorette parties, but here are a few highlights to share :)
some wine samples. classy with a diet coke (i was tired after waking up early and our run!), plastic cups and goldfish :)
Me and the gorgeous bride-to-be! Can’t believe she’s getting married in a week!!
What bachelorette party would be complete without Ryan Gosling?
We got to see how the wine was made!
I stole this photo … but it’s during our private wine tour!
Sunday morning we woke up with a beauttttiful view. I mean how awesome is this view from where we stayed?
Anyway, Sunday was a LAZY day. After getting back from the wine weekend, I pretty much spent the day prepping for a presentation I had on Monday, doing laundry, getting in an easy workout (the elliptical is my best friend the day after a long run) and then of course dinner with B’s family. The weekend went by WAY too fast!
Some questions for you:
- What’s your favorite race distance? Least favorite? 10K is definitely my least favorite as of now. Maybe I can work on liking it – by preparing for my next one! Any tips for how?
- What’s your favorite way to spend a lazy day? I need at least part of my day to be productive – so even if it’s just doing laundry or baking, I need to get something done (to justify all the couch-sitting going on)!
