BLING Team will Run again!!!

So just a short post to express enthusiasm for Ragnar Preparation! We all decided we'd better sign up for Ragnar again, because we remembered the fun lead-up preparation. And Ive been experiencing that a little-

Saturday we had our Awesome team captain- Bridgitte- make a long drive here to run with us. We went to breakfast afterwards at Liberty Market. Im not usually one to want to eat so many calories in the morning that Im stuffed until 7 pm, but after a long saturday run, sometimes it just feels sooo good! Especially with my sweat sisters!

And sunday a few of us snuck in an extra run- a night run. Night runs are fun because they are different than our usual routine and therefore stick in my brain longer. And they make me appreciate the girls so much, because Id never go out running on my own at night. I just wouldnt do it. But we did it, and it was great! I get a funny sensation during night runs- the dark and our bouncing flashlights makes me feel a little like Im running on a trampoline! A little unsteady! But I like it.

Just a couple of weeks now til Ragnar del Sol. Im looking forward to a couple more practice night runs, and to a couple of days of "doubles"- we have to be in shape to go running more than once in a day. Fun stuff!!! Nothing better than having a legitimate excuse to ignore the dishes and go out for a second run!
