Very happy hour, or two

Had a great evening yesterday after work.  I took off a little bit early, to go run with AK from her house (it was all part of a plan).  She’s on her Boston Marathon taper right now. I told her I’d do whatever she needed to do for her run…this was her workout.

5 incredibly hot and sweaty miles.  My dumb self wore a navy blue shirt with sleeves, which didn’t really help things.  Plus Brushy Creek on the dam side provides no shade.  It was a good reminder of how I am not acclimated yet and it’s going to be a long hot summer.  It was only 90 at 5 pm when we started.  She started kicking it on the dam.  The only kicking I was doing was of my own rear end.

Went back to her house for the cool down and we were DRENCHED.  I was seriously dripping sweat all over her house.  I toweled off and rushed across the road to Z’Tejas where I was hosting a surprise happy hour/Boston Marathon pep-rally for her.

Unfortunately I was in the bathroom changing my shirt when they showed up!  She didn’t see my purse at the table though, so I was able to sneak up behind her and still get a reaction.  She was all smiles, made me so happy!

Great evening with the gals.  A little disappointed in the restaurants GF menu.  I ended up getting tuna and them just putting the sauces on the side.  There were no appetizers at all, a couple of salads, and then some big entrees.

We all wished her well and sent her off with hugs!  So proud of her!

  1. I am so confused about how to dress myself for running right now LOL. It was hot then today it was barely 60 and I had to force myself not to wear sleeves. Funny how we forget ;-) Hate those trails with no shade relief. And that’s just an awesome thing to do for her – the party (and running with her of course).
