Ok, so this week's post is going to be VERY boring. There was no long run this Sunday. I knew when I signed up with TNT that there would be a few weekends when I couldn't run because I would be out of town. This was the first of those. 2 of my closest girlfriends (and bridesmaids) Brooke and Debbie flew into town from on Friday. We headed to Palm Springs for the weekend, along with another friend and bridesmaid, Briana. It was kind of my bachelorette weekend, in a really low-key kind of way. We vegged by the pool and watched a lot of Olympics and just hung out and caught up- it was exactly what I wanted to do. I can't have imagined a better weekend. I did manage to get in a 2 mile run on Saturday morning, although it was RIDICULOUSLY hot (already in the 90's and humid by 9 AM when I ran) so 2 miles was all I was willing to do. It was definitely worth skipping the long run, it was a great weekend. I'm making up for it this week, though- I ran 4 miles yesterday and 3.5 miles today. We run 16 miles on Sunday.
In closing, I want to thank my good friends JASON & ERICA PELERIN, and their newest addition, RAEGAN for their support of my marathon with Team In Training! Jason was in Pat's unit during his first tour of Iraq so Erica and I got to be friends during that tour. They deployed together again in 2006, and I don't really know what I would have done without Erica that time around. The USMC moved the Pelerins to Florida about the time Pat moved to Orange County, and I miss getting to see them! Hopefully we'll end up in the same spot again sometime soon.
