Happy Monday! I hope you all had great weekends. Mine was pretty awesome. I got in a nice 13 mile run with a new running group in my new ‘hood. Yes, I moved again, in case you missed that.
I moved in with the S.O. and needed a group to run with. Fortunately, I found a group not too far from where we live and joined them at 6:00 AM on Saturday. It’s always interesting joining a new group. It reminds me of the first day of school. You hope someone will sit by you at lunch run your pace and you hope there are no mean girls plenty of bathroom stops. Fortunately, this was a really nice group and while they are currently a tad faster than me, I found myself keeping up, even with the THREE bridges we ran. This group will certainly make me stronger as every weekend features the damn lovely THREE bridges. Oof.
I had planned on doing ten miles, but since the route was 13, I figured what the hell. It was not the smartest decision I’ve ever made because I was pretty wiped by mile ten, but I hung on and am happy I did. And in case you were wondering, they did in fact, have plenty of water and potty stops. Score!
Saturday night was spent at the University of Tampa track where my track coach hosted a 5K. I opted to volunteer and cheer folks on. I am very glad I did because it poured the entire night. Kudos to those who raced!
Since Sunday called for crosstraining, we met up with blogger buddy Meghan and a few other friends for a thirty-three mile bike ride. I had been wanting to ride with Meghan for a while so it was the perfect opportunity for us to catch up and enjoy a cool and overcast day. Meghan is a strong cyclist! She rode the distance without clips AND we kept a quick pace. This girl is gonna be a killer triathlete!

Great weekend and congrats on the move! I totally agree…joining a new group totally feels like the first day of school!!!
Sounds like a great weekend Boo, but we totally missed you!!! Hopefully I'll get to see you my next trip! Love you!
I'm glad we got to finally ride together. Can't wait to be able to run together! Let me know if you ever want to come up to my neighborhood and swim one morning or evening. Our pool is awesome!
And also thank you for your sweet compliment. I really appreciate it.
Glad you gals had a nice ride and looks like you packed a lot into a weekend that included moving!
Great job hon! Where did you move? I see you are doing the Chicago marathon this year! i will be there spectating!

Good job! You're running is back to normal so quick! 🙂 I had a pretty crappy 9 miles and now I know why – appointment tomorrow to find out what is the reason.
Look at you making friends at your new school 🙂 It is like you didn't take a break from running at all! Love your bike jersey BTW!
