Love the Run You're With 5K

So a few weeks ago I ran Love the Run You're With 5k.  I ran while some run clubbers manned the water station.  We then met up afterwards at a bar for some mimosa's and food.  The run starts out with a lovely hill.  I knew there was no hope of a PR because of the fact that the day before I had my 5K PR and  the stupid hill that goes straight up really is not great for a PR.  Which is fine.

Now you can't run a Valentine's Run with out some love.  I had the Love Bug wings and heart headband. It works. :)

People loved the wings!  The best Halloween purchase ever!  I've had those wings for two years and have never taken them

Well this winter has been a rough one.  Last week was only the second week that we were in school for a five day work week.  Monday we are expecting a big storm.  This winter has not helped my running and training.  Tomorrow I have a 10 miler.  It should be interesting since I haven't really been running much.  I foresee a painful ten miles.  The good thing is the storm is not supposed to start until after dinner time.

Birthday run! a.k.a. Love the Run You're With

It was a great morning for a birthday run!  I picked up Jami and headed to meet Becky for my birthday run 5K this morning!  I brought lots of tutus...

And Glen even was willing to put on a tutu for the run!

You got to love when friends are willing to celebrate a birthday run with you!  We all met at Champps sports bar so we didn't have to stand outside forever. Its always nice to be able to wait inside during February.

For the most part we all ran pretty close to each other.  Becky and Jami passed Lee and I somewhere around 2.5 miles..Lee, although faster, ran with me since it was my birthday run (not sure if you all have heard that my birthday is this month)  All in all it was a great morning for a run.  Although poor Glen is now down a glove, I guess his left glove went around for another 5k.

Of course we ended with brunch and some drinks.  Not sure that the staff at Champps enjoyed the onslaught of runners after the race.  Great morning hanging out with everyone.

Now on to more birthday fun for February!!
