We’re leaving tomorrow for our trip! I’m so excited- I did my long run today, and it was a blast. I was able to stay off the hills for the most part. My legs didn’t feel great, but its probably because I didn’t get a good night’s sleep and I’m not hydrated enough. I think if I opened up my stride more, I would have felt a lot better.  With my long run done, I’ll probably skip my afternoon run to get everything ready.

Tomorrow morning I’ll have to get an extra early run in between 4:30 and 5am before our flight leaves in the morning. I would normally do it on the treadmill downstairs but that get soooo boring- I’ve been wearing this night life gear from Brooks that glows when light hits it so you’re visible to any lights- I definitely feel safer wearing it!

I’ve also been getting my shirts a little longer so I can pull the sleeves over my hands when I run- I hate wearing gloves when its cold because when you’re hands get hot, you have to carry them the rest of the way….. I’m so excited to be able to run in the warm sun!
