#runstreak #day200

This weekend was beautiful (again with Jim Carrey, B-E-A-utiful).  Saturday was expected to be nice, but the weather forecast had said that Sunday was supposed to rain.  I told Chris I wanted to NOT go shopping on Saturday this week so that I could enjoy the sun, unlike last weekend.  I woke up, I drank my coffee while watching bad TV.

 I went for a run (which I don't have a picture of).  I got my nails done, both toes (the blue) and fingers, the pink and sparkle).

 and I sat out in the sun (no picture).  My Dad and my sister that lives on the east side came over for the weekend, so we went to my other sister's house (where they were staying) for dinner.  My nephew was there and a friend of my eastside sister.  We had dinner and chatted.  It was so nice.  I really enjoyed my time and would have stayed longer if it hadn't gotten so late so quickly (we left at 9pm). 

Sunday morning I started my morning pretty much the same, coffee and bad TV (by bad I mean "reality" TV on Bravo).  I got ready a little earlier to run.  I decided that for my 200th run I'd go farther than I have for a while, and decided on 7 miles.  The most I've run for a month is 5 miles, 6  miles on April 21, and 7 miles on March 17th. 

 I decided that for my 200th run I'd go farther than I have for a while, and decided on 7 miles.  The most I've run for a month is 5 miles, 6  miles on April 21, and 7 miles on March 17th.  I looked up my last 7 mile run and figured out where to go. Then realized at 6 miles that I was at least 1.5 miles from home, so I decided to go with it and run 8 miles.

I haven't run 8 miles since January 6th.  I definitely felt it while grocery shopping later.  My feet hurt and my legs were a little sore.  After my run we shopped and then I laid in the sun for most of the afternoon.  I really do love the sun.  I love it more now than I did even just a few years ago.  Maddox keeps saying that the summer is the best season, and I can't help but agree with him (now). 

I really struggled with which picture to post on Instagram so both ended up going onto my feed.  I like the shadow and the placement of my hands in the first better, but I like the overall jump and location of the second better.
