Tried to sleep in but only could yawn!
Hoping the rain wouldn't be coming down hard
As we run up then down the boulevard
It's almost time for the Monument Ave 10k
EBun, the Running Bug, and her hub were ready to play!
Ready to Play! |
A little farther north, it's for certain
the bunnies are gonna get wet -
Staying in bed was an option but yet...
SRab and her buddy are gonna run out in it anyway -
That's better than the treadmill any old day!
EBun lined up in the corral marked K
At 8:45 on the dot she was underway!
Her plan was to start easy then pick things up
And by the end it'd be 'suck it up buttercup'!
She was 'running naked' - no Garmin in sight
It's been years since she'd raced without a HR strap on tight!
The heavy rain held off during the run
Like last year the course entertainment made things fun!
As she ran along she got quite a few cheers
Of course it was due to the bunny ears!
A brief walk at water stop number one
At all the rest she grabbed cups on the run.
Managed to keep the pace up and sprint at the end
Made sure to give all the volunteers a hand!
Running Bug had a most excellent day:
A double PR with both distance and pace!
Same for RB's husband - he did great
Even though he had forgotten to hydrate!
Thanks to Ukrops and Sports Backers who put on the race
It really rocks and I ran with a smile on my face!
SRab had a little more time to spend on her feet!
18 miles? Yep! But half with Running Buddy Kathy made it more sweet!
Enjoyed the gently rolling hills out on Beach Drive-
A little warm in tights but SRab did survive!
To all passing runners we said a cheery "hello!"
SRab still did it later to ignore legs like jello!
Sunday - more rain, so what's EBun to do?
An indoor spin with Coach Melissa - that's who!
A short and sweet class but that's ok
Earned my pizza with a special friend for later that day!
Time for new running shoes was also on tap -
Over to =PR= for some New Balance 860s - how about that?
On a chilly rainy day SRab went to her 16th ever Bikram yoga class-
Going twice a week she's decided will now be her task!
Went to swim since the rain makes her lazy -
Watching it snow out the pool window made her kind of crazy!
There were some upsets in the Sweet Sixteen to the Elite Eight
Bring on the Final Four - whatever it takes!
Too bad this means no basketball for almost a week!!
So other kinds of pursuits we'll have to seek!
