I think that was my first Friday workout of 2017 (yes, really)

Why you no take me with you to run, Mommeh?

I haven't been able to get it together on Fridays yet this year. Plans with friends, not feeling great, tired, too dark to go run outside, etc. etc. etc., blah blah blah, excuse excuse excuse.

Today, though, I was ON. I knew the weather would be OK, I knew the sun wasn't setting until 8 p.m., I was feeling fine, I had gotten enough sleep, and I didn't have any plans. Even though I worked a long day and had to spend several hours working a special event where I — gasp — had to interact with and be nice to people, I knew today was a perfect day to go run.

I headed out after work and did 6.5 around my neighborhood in juuuuust less than an hour. Nothing special, but it felt good to be alive in the crisp air, with my legs moving and my blood pumping.

Now I'm doing this:

Yum yum.

Happy weekend!
