All toenails go to heaven!

Today I ran 10 miles!!! This is the longest long run I've done since my half and I am so happy I was able to complete it. I started running before my group started (to try and get in as much distance as possible before the sunrise (and increasing temps). I ran 1.5 miles solo, then 6 miles with my group, then 2.5 miles solo (after the group run was over), for the grand total of 10 miles and not a meter over...

I had a beautiful backdrop to the morning running session...

My pace was a bit slow throughout the run. I tried to push myself to run faster but my shoulder started hurting (residual effects from my gym injury this past Thursday) and it's hard to run "fast" and keep your arms still. Regardless, my pace per mile breakdown...

Overall running summary...

After my run I tried out my new reusable ice pack to ice my knee and my shoulder...

(it's pretty but it leaks....I'm very disappointed)

I had a great QT (quality time) lunch with Damian at one of the better Jamaican restaurants in our area...

(we rarely have the same days off so it was nice)

The rest of the day was spent taking Kaiyu dress shopping (she has a Quinceanera to attend next month), and visiting baby Matai...

I saw this on Facebook (from photos snapped at the Chicago Marathon today) and I thought it was hilarious and I just had to repost it!

(I'll be there next year...maybe I can get someone to make this sign for me then)

How were your LRs this weekend? Did anyone run Chicago today?....share your stories!!!!
