burn baby burn

it's been a fun weekend. i can't believe it's already sunday! let's not even think of what comes after sunday...

taking a nice relaxing rest day today. gotta put together a menu so i can do my grocery shopping for the week. then it's meal prep. probably should do a bit of laundry and straightening up. other than that, i think i'll just veg a little. watch a few episodes of breaking bad. just started watching it and i'm obsessed!

here's a little recap of the last few days, since i haven't logged my workouts for a couple days.

saturday

i sure as heck felt my legs yesterday! but did i stay in bed? nope. i sure didn't. i went for a nice light run to stretch out my calves, quads and hammies. i didn't log miles this time because i just wanted to lose myself in the run and not worry about pace or distance. it was so freeing. well, the last half turned into more of a fast walk because i took my little munchkin and i could tell she was pretty pooped. it was pretty warm out, and the park we ran to didn't have a single water fountain that was turned on. i mean who shuts the water off at a park in the middle of summer?! and of course i didn't bring water with me because i'd planned on stopping there for a drink. thank goodness their bathroom sink was on. not ideal, but i was at least able to hand feed her water and splash some cool water over her head. she was already pretty pooped on our way back, so i didn't want to push her. i ended up carrying her the last third of the way home. she was of course happy as a clam, panting and wagging her tail in my arms.

my little girl. she tries so hard to keep up!

went to a friend's birthday party afterwards and celebrated with her for the rest of the day. it was a blast! hung out with old and new faces. met some really good people and had a grand ol' time. :)
