By the end of it, I was red faced, sweaty, and my hair was a hot mess. Whew.

After my running group’s bridge run/boot camp on Tuesday night, I went to Wendy’s and tried their Asian Chicken Salad for the first time.

It was delicious – I give it two thumbs up!

Last but not least, Lance posted this to his fb on Monday and I just had to share because I think it’s hilarious! (Monday was Cinco de Mayo incase you didn’t notice…..) Good one, Lance!

Tomorrow, I’m running in a 5 mile race in my hometown. I haven’t run in this race since my IT Band injury, so I’m intrigued to see how it goes!  My main concern is the heat and humidity (the humidity was at 100% yesterday morning…sigh).

We also have our 15 year class reunion this weekend an I’m super excited to see everyone! (I graduated with a small class of 19 so we were all very close.) Yesterday, I called to order a cookie cake and asked for it to say c/o 2000. The guy on the other line said “TWO THOUSAND?” (like OMG you’re still alive?) Yes, thanks for confirming that I’m getting old, dude. Appreciate it.

Hope you all have a great weekend! What’s your plans?
