I did another run yesterday! It was the Hot Chocolate 15k! I really was not looking forward to this race. It was cold and early and I had barely done the Princess 10k, so adding another 5k to that did NOT sound fun. But I did it! I walked most of it and was ridiculously slow. I technically didn’t do the WHOLE thing. Normally they turned around people that are too slow on the big out and back, but I was surprised they didn’t do that this year. What they DID do was have us skip a tiny out and back right at the end, so I ended up with 9 miles instead of 9.3. Close enough for me! Though I do feel like at that point let us just finish the whole thing, it can’t take THAT much longer for another .3 miles. So my results are a little flawed, but whatever. I had been hoping to be turned around way earlier and cut it down to closer to a 10k, but noooo. With the walking around before and after the run I did more than a full 15k anyway, so I’m good.
After the run I went out to a late lunch with my friend and had the cheap drinks at Applebees! I forgot to take a picture of the first drink, but it was mardi gras themed. Yum!
Tomorrow it’s back to work and I don’t want to do it!! I’ve loooooved being on vacation and I’m not ready to go back! Ah well, I AM excited to see my coworkers, just not the actual work part. Ugh, thus is life.
