marathoner452Spending 17 hours in the car this weekend was fun, and by that I mean exhausting but definitely worth it. My family drove all the way up to Michigan to see my cousin's piano recital and it was awesome. Phenomenonal. This girl is going to major in music education and minor in music performance. You got me as to how you memorize an hour's worth of classical piano music, but she did and she only barely slipped up twice.
So needless to say I didn't do much running this weekend. Just a short run on my grandpa's walking treadmill in my mom's cotton socks, my grandma's walking shoes, and my dress Saturday night (I was just sick and tired of sitting down all day), and an easy 4 miles last night. I could have gone farther, but it was really humid and pretty warm, and I'm saving my mental energy for the Baltimore Marathon training that starts in a week with a general aerobic/speed workout: 7 miles with 7 x 100 meter sprints, more than likely on the squishy high school track.
I say squishy 'cause it'll probably be after work at 4:30ish, and if today's weather continues it'll be in the 90s and humid. Funfunfun. The things I do to make a little money and run a 4 hour marathon...start work at 7 am and run afterwards during the hottest part of the day. (By the way, this is a different job. It's in a warehouse putting away endless amounts of expensive men's clothing, but it pays pretty well and it's just save enough money to buy a car.)
That's about all the news from here. Oh yeah, and Chris came over and bought my mom and I snowballs in Westminster, and I can say from experience that my mai tai snowball actually tasted a lot like the real thing. :D
