And I got nothing exciting to report.
Today’s Run – 10 Miles 85 minutes
I’m skipping my weekly recap because my running last week looked like this::
Yup before 2012 could wrap up I was smacked with a nasty sinus cold that kept me sleeping 16 out of 24 hours while the other 8 were a daze watching Dr. Who and wondering why my cat will be a pillow but won’t cuddle.
However with enough bourbon and sinus cold medicine I ventured outside to celebrate the end and start of an annual in style.
Thanks to our friend’s invite, we drove around Boston in a limo with Dave the man our limo driver.
With a few stops in 10 degree weather to take a photo or 2
And of course New Year’s is not complete without Chinese food… or kinda Chinese food at PF Changs.
Yup, you know I’m on a lot of cough medicine when I am too delirious to take photos of my food. Instead I bless you with this lovely photo of Tony and all my hair in its glory state.
Medicine I was told
And of course no New Year’s Eve celebration is complete with a silly hat or 10.
I would love to say that I made the most of my day off on January 1st, 2013 but instead I slept from 2AM to 5PM and back to bed at 10PM! I started the year with a record sleep session I can be proud of for months to come. Hopefully I’ll get some long runs this weekend to make up for the sorry waste I made over the holidays.
Other exciting things to report
1. I tried this awesome pulled pork recipe in my slow cooker and while the smell of meat and root beer wasn’t pleasant, if you remove all the liquid and add a small amount of BBQ sauce it tastes amazing.
2. Tony and I signed up for a few races in 2013
- Annual Derry Boston Prep 16 Miler – Derry, NH Jan 27th 2013 (This also means I got Tony 3 miles closer to a marathon bwahaha)
- 15K Great Stew Chase – Lynn, MA Feb 3, 2013
- Hyannis Marathon – Feb 24th 2013
- TARC Spring Thaw 6 Hour – March 24, 2013 I have a goal of 30 + mile but we’ll see how weather and trail will go
- Cox Marathon – May 12, 2013
