Toast, avocado, sesame tofu, salad and carrots.
It was one of those caught in the rain runs. One of those moments that just makes you feel alive. As if beating hearts and coursing blood never really counted until the flesh it fuels was struck by water falling from the sky without warning.
Yeah, it was one of those.
Now I don't have to shower!
Beautiful day today in Charlotte. Well, actually… it was 75 degrees and sunny, but we were under a tornado warning all day. Somehow the storm stayed just far enough away for me to convince myself a quick run before a night on the town would be a very good idea.
Oh hey, Charlotte. Looking very Gotham tonight, aren't we?
It totally was. It was just a wetter very good idea than I had intended. Sometimes the unexpected is better than anything we ever could have planned for ourselves. Am I right or am I right? (I am right.)
My morning started bright and early as always with blueberry coffee (best.ever.) and a yogurt glob (Greek yogurt, oats, raisins, cinnamon, honey, peanut butter) before yoga.
Goooood morning, sunshine.
Starting your day at 6a means you get to be done at 2p. I highly recommend it, especially on Fridays.
I ate an apple and an orange and slammed tea at work.
Then I came home, ate a fan-frickin-tastic late lunch and lazed around with iced coffee (x2… control yourself, Katie!) and A Course in Miracles before embarking on my rainy run.
ROY G.
Hey, baby.
My faithful return to coffee on the rocks is a sure sign the seasons they are a-changin’. I’m ok with that.
Now I’m off to drink beer with my fellow teacher trainees. You know how we do.
I like your ‘tude, Katie. If I was caught in the rain while on a run, I would be a grumpy bitch. I love that you are the opposite of that right now. I have a lot to learn, clearly!
Love the opening of this post, great words! Rain running is awesome, did my first ever 19 miler in a downpour the entire time and it was blissful! Unfortunately a stress fx has me sidelined but at least there’s yoga! (in 2 weeks anyhow)
I love rain runs, glad you were able to make the most of the storm.
How is baby Hank???
Oh, I just read the comments on the last post, sorry about Hank.
You at least made is his last day comfortable, though, that was a really great thing to do.
Where’s the BIV to go with your ROY G.?
I love running in the rain! I’m not even much of a runner, but I love running in the rain. It’s so relaxing and freeing…and it provides a built in shower. Bonus!
