Needless to say I was drenched after this workout, but it felt great getting through. The run was tough though. Just looking at it written is a tad bit deceiving, doing it is another thing.
I ran a couple errands today including treating myself to a skinny peppermint mocha, my favorite! I finished the day at home reading my new book I got for Christmas, Wild by Cheryl Strayed. I am very intrigued by the story and it keeps getting better and better. I will let you know how I end up liking it once I finish! Hopefully I will finish by the end of break.
Later Rose, one of my best friends, came over for dinner, cake and a movie! On the docket for dinner...potato soup with sandwiches. I had a seafood salad sandwich. It was delish! Then the cake was awesome! I got a Pennsylvania Bakery chocolate peanut butter cake. Yummmmmy! I have to admit this is the first year in probably close to ten years that I haven't had a cookie cake, but it was worth it!
Did I mention my awesome new kicks I got for my birthday?! I wanted to go and properly get fitted for shoes because I have been having trouble finding the ones that really fit me and I think I found them. Fingers crossed!
