Saturday Recap...

Today's 5K was supposed to be a simulation run in preparation for my first race of 2017 (which will be the Tropical 5K next week Saturday). I was aiming for an 11min/mile pace...

So not quite there but still not too bad overall. One good thing was my negative splits...
There is always a desire to push myself a little more but I'm scheduled to run 10 miles tomorrow (a 5K solo run & a 7 mile run with my group) so I didn't want to go overboard this morning.

After my run I dropped Kai to a car wash fundraiser that she was doing with her track team (pictures to follow) and then went to see my brother and his family. My nephew was super excited to see me...

I really like spending time with my nephew at this stage... he screams "Aunty LeAnne!" and gives me a big hug... his face lights up when he sees me... he wants me to come over... or to go and watch him do soccer drills...
(indoors & in the A/C... these kids have it easy today 😉)

After soccer I spent some time working on my jigsaw puzzle...
(about 2/3's done! 😊)

And then went back to Kai's track team's car wash fundraiser to get my car washed...

My brother and sister-in-law had also gone to support the fundraiser earlier in the day and Gail (sis-in-law) made this nice collage of pics from the event...

In other news, I'm now the owner of a prepaid phone...

that I stare at all the time, anxiously hoping it will ring with new information that can help find my family...

When is (was) your first race of 2017?

Do you do simulation training runs to prepare for races?

What's your favorite indoor sport?
