#beach running

A present honestly

My phone got flooded during my prayer/meditation on the shore and the waves just came up ashore. I didn’t pout about it I was blessed enough to have my phone working the whole time till I got home.

I ordered a new one but they got a hold on my account for 1k so my spending is also restricted which means I’ll only be doing what I NEED to do.

Looking for good sports bras w no tan lines. Do they exist? Actually a full gear set w no tan lines would be blessed.

My Fanny pack is too big but it’s doing the job rn

Got so hot today I asked the hotel lobby for scissors to cut my leggings into shorts. I love them. They are rugged but that’s my business

I feel so good I think I’m gonna go ahead and run back after this cool down at 12;07

A Brief Overview of 7 Months (cont.):

We ran and ran and ran. Almost back to my pre-injury speeds but running grateful every single time. I spent almost every morning of our Topsail trip waking up around 6:45am and hitting up a 3-4 mile beach run while Bryce fished and it was quite literally perfect every time, even when I felt like I was running through a heavy wall of thick air. Heh. 

I spent a few days in New Orleans for the NACE conference which was great! The conference left a little bit to be desired but what a cool location; we were walking distance from a lot of the fun touristy things and got to see a lot of great live music and drink some good drinks while walking along the street. A few of my former colleagues from UVA + Red Ventures were there which made for a fun reunion week.

On Memorial Day weekend everyone was out of town so I took a day trip to Williamsburg which was nice. Had some good food on my own and read and stumbled upon a lot of neat happenings. 10/10 would recommend solo travel dates with yourself.

In April I saw Elyse Kopecky talk at a Women, Wine, and Wellness event which was so fabulous. It was right downtown where I work so I just skipped out of the office for some free food (all recipes from her cookbook with Shalane Flanagan!) and wine and got to hear a great story about her journey.

In March we had our first wedding of the year with 2 more to come in the next 2 weeks!

We golfed, we read, we camped out in Louisa - me on the porch swing with a book and Bryce on the lawn mower.

IT SNOWED in... February? I think? A good snow that had everyone working from home in pajamas and sipping warm coffee.

From snow to soft serve. A perfect summer night after our vacation (sob) eating pizza and stumbling upon a local concert!
