HOW is it Monday already?! I’m pretty sure I blinked and the weekend was over like that… Thankfully, I don’t have any meetings or events tonight, so my life can somewhat return to normal now that the production is over!
Saturday morning, I met up with my running group for a 10 mile run. It was a little chilly at the beginning, so I wore a long sleeved shirt and regretted it about halfway through my run. Oh well. At least it was a cute shirt! :)
I took the run a little slower than normal because my knee started bothering me about halfway through.
I was going to attempt a 12 mile run but decided to cut it down to 10 when my knee started acting crazy. This is the longest I’m going to run before the Diva’s Half Marathon in a few weeks. Twelve miles is what I prefer as my longest training run before a half marathon, but I’m not running Diva’s for time so it’s ok. I also want my knee to feel good for the race and that’s the most important thing!
After the run, I came home and stained the planks of the deck in our backyard…..then I convinced my husband to take me to get a snow cone!
This one’s a new creation called “The Little Mermaid” and oh my goodness….it was delicious!
Friday night, Saturday night, and all day Sunday were filled with rehearsals and performances of our Easter Production.
I was Mary, the mother of Jesus. I didn’t have a baby doll for our first few run-throughs, so it ranged from Big Bird to Hello Kitty to (finally) a “real” baby doll.
Overall, the production went really well and everything flowed smooth! I love being a part of these but it’s exhausting at the same time. Seriously, I can’t tell you how much I’m looking forward to a night off tonight!
Lunch at McAlister’s was a must this weekend, too (of course)! :)
How was your weekend? Anything exciting happen?
The Divas races are so much Karen, you will have a blast. You were smart to cut that long run short with your knee flaring up. I had an awesome weekend with Christine and Adam's big news and my last long (22 mile) training run for Boston. Wow, I can't believe I have started to taper today!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that! I can't wait to run it!! YAY for tapering! I cannot wait to hear about your Boston experience!
DeleteSounds like a great weekend Karen! Take care of that knee!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mindy! :)
DeleteWe did McAlisters lunch yesterday! I can't wait to get a snowball at home this weekend when we run the CCC!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the snowball and have fun at CCC!
DeleteGood work on the run.
ReplyDeleteI hate trying to decide what to wear on runs - I hate being too hot or too cold, it is a fine balancing act for sure.
Thanks, Sarah! I agree completely!
DeleteBeing a part of a production sounds fun! We went bowling this weekend and it was a blast. I hadn't done that in years!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like so much fun! Glad y'all had a great time! :)
DeleteI'm with you. I don't know where the weekend goes! Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteYes, they go by way too fast!! We should have three day weekends every weekend! :)
DeleteI love that they named the snow cone The Little Mermaid. It looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Oh my goodness it was so yummy!
DeleteI'm thinking of signing up for a Diva race too!
ReplyDeleteI saw Cinderella this weekend and loved it :)
