My run was fairly tame, just an easy 3 miler. I ran a regular 3 mile route to see how the Garmin would ping out the mile times compared to where I had "estimated" them at. They were actually pretty close which is nice. I also had an insanely strong finish at the end of the run which felt great. 26:02 for a pace of 8:41.
Mile 1: 8:55
Mile 2: 8:48
Mile 3: 8:17
My new running clothes came in the mail and I am SO EXCITED. The purple shorts that I was somewhat iffy on ended up being royal blue. Score one for Jeri. Well. They're actually that color that half of the population deems purple and the other half blue. I tend to fall into that blue half of the world, but as long as I think they're blue, it's great. The shirt is very on the uh..fitted side, but is still super cute. I'll just have to make sure everything is toned and tight so there's no ab flab flopping around. Ha.
I also did my ab workout and reinstated the one hundred push up challenge. I did week 1 (the middle column) 2 weeks ago. The third day of the challenge was a struuuuggle, and the website said to do the week again if you were struggling. So instead I took a week off, and then started back up again. I was nice enough to repay the favor to the boyfriend and do the push ups while he was doing a course online, but I don't think he enjoyed it nearly as much as I enjoyed watching his. Maybe it's because I don't have bulging arms and fabulous back muscles (thank God, bulging? Eew). Or maybe it was because I was doing them in an oversized shirt and sweats so he couldn't see my sinewy (much better descriptive word for my dream muscles) arms and back flexed into perfection. Next time.

I am totally jealous of your sporty family and your faux-hawk-rockin' nephew!
And great run with a strong finish!
what a cutie! the dallas white rock race is great! i ran the full 2 years ago and have been wanting to get back to do it again.
great job on the 3!
Your nephew seems to have very athletic parents! It will be interesting to see what sports he plays when he grows up!
Great job on the run!
I totally know what color you mean, it seems so obviously blue to me but other people think it's purple. I have some shoes that color. Your nephew is too stinking adorable!
