My longest run in quite a while... since my injury in July. Ooh look, poetry. Heheh. Accompanied by Rochelle and Alicia H. and a beautiful sunrise. I overslept since I set my alarm for *yesterday* at 5am, awoke to the sound of my own voice saying 'Okay!' at 5:18 (must have been quite the dream!) and realized I had to be at Bradford Beach in ten minutes! I scrambled to get dressed, texted Rochelle, and made it there in 20. So we started a little late but it was perfect, running down the point and back, twice, and into Lakeshore State Park a bit. We made lots of plans for the coming weekends for spectating for the NorthFace 50, Lakefront and Chicago marathons.

SHOUT OUT! Good luck tomorrow to Tracey G. and Krista as they embark on their 50 mile race! You girls have trained for such a long time and your reward will come tomorrow in the form of a bucket list accomplishment that many of us never dare to dream about. Y'all crazy! :) Amy K. and I will be out there along with a gaggle of friends who are coming to cheer. We love you!
