Last night it was 55 and gorgeous and an off day. today was uppers 20's WINDYand misty. Towards the end I swore I was getting hit with ice.

But I felt strong up till mile 7. That was about the time I went to my car to refil my water bottle. Off to a shower cuz I am COOOOOLLLDDD!

 

Oh I ran into a lot of people running cuz I drove to the bike path. Everyone was super nice. Except the last people I ran into. We had ended our run at the same time and they asked if I was done and asked how many I ran. I said 10. I don't wanna say that they rolled their eyes but they were all--Oh we did 15. I politely replied Oh are you training for something. Then they listed like 4 marathons. Including Chicago. Sorry I'm sure Chciago is cool and everything but just cuz you pay 140 bucks doesn't make you a bad ass. I finished stretching and wished them good luck. Their bright orange jackets were bothering me.

Lol! You're hilarious! Don't those posers know you've got to spend at least 150 bucks if you want to truly be badass? Bright orange jackets were bothering you! Thanks, your blog made my day!

Nice ten miler too.
