I was excited to run this morning. I was looking at my training calendar, and I'm all the way at the bottom. Only one thing left....the big run. So this was my last "training" day.
The run was easy, I tried to keep my pace over 9mm. I think my first mile was around 9:45 and the second was around 9:15.
I went to the craft festival last night. Lots of booths were selling things with polka dots and big monograms. That must be the craft thing of the season. I got to try some crickle. It's kind of like peanut brittle, but it's not as hard. The brittle part is crunchy, but it's more of a flaky kind of crunchy, like a butterfinger. It was good, but it wasn't as great as I thought it was going to be. Of course I bought some, because maybe it'll grow on me.
It was hard not eat all of the different things they had to taste test there, but I knew I didn't need the fat/calories from that stuff (dips, cakes, chips, fudge, funnel cake!). I was a little worried about the germs too. I thought, what if someone double dipped? Or what if that dip hasn't been kept at a cool temp long enough? I didn't want to get sick from it. I feel like I'm little OCD lately about not getting sick from people around me. I've trained too much to give it all up for some rhino-virus or flu bug.
