September 6th, 2014

i started my day out with a 10+mi run down by the beach 
(i still love having my ca state parks/beach pass.  totally worth it to be able to come down here to run and to also take the kids to the beach anytime that i want)

we ended it with a refreshing dip into the cool pacific ocean
another reason why i love southern california
this was also the first run i've had since starting to take estroven 5 days ago.  i finally felt like my old self again.  for my last mile, which had typically been my strength, i was able to run under 10min/mi.  i haven't done that in...wow, a while.  
although the overall average was about 11min/mi, it was a run where i didn't have to stop from over-heating, and i wasn't completely wiped out beyond belief.  a total and complete change from last sunday's 10mi run, where i had to stop every couple of mile to walk because i just couldn't take it. 


 woo-hoo!


 right after i got home, i reminded mom it was home depot day, so the we promptly got the kids geared up and headed out to make a craft!
it was a wizard of oz bird house today...
i'm a little confused though, because i think it must be for miniature birds =p

 i had a 1pm get together with my SJ pals at fronks
i ordered deep fried corn on the cob to go with my maple bacon burger that had a side of fried zucchini.  and nope, that's not a beer.  it's an angry orchard hard apple cider. =p
i am still so stuffed from lunch (the food probably didn't get to us until past 1:30), i don't think i'll be eating dinner tonight!
 wanda, mary, sam (in the back), karla, me, and jean
i miss these gals!
