Jaime came to town! This time with her boyfriend. It was fun having them around for a couple of days. I miss having this girl here....we had so much fun together! Jaime took most of the pics on her camera...but here is a shot of us at the Norwalk Beach...



And just another pic of the beach. Do you know that in the 4 years I've lived here I've actually never ventured down to the Norwalk Beach. Weird, I know. I've been to a couple of others - just not Norwalks.




On the drive to the beach with Jaime and Danny, I realized the ride there was pretty flat and decided it would be a good option for a run. So - that's exactly what I did yesterday...I ran to the beach and all around the shoreline until I ran about 18 miles. I was hoping to get to 20...but I got thirsty and tired and decided to head home a little earlier than I planned. It was great running near the water though - not as many hills as I usually run. I hate hills.

Anyway - I think 18 miles is going to be my longest run before the marathon. I haven't been super good about training so at this point I'm just hoping to finish the dang thing. I've decided that running more than 15 miles is just not normal! I'm honestly just hoping not to die! :)
