Let’s see, since my last post on July 12th, I have:
- Ran 11 miles (Monday, 13th July)
- Went to Disneyland for the second time in my lifetime (Wednesday, 15th July – 1pm to 10pm)
- Met up with Jo and Sheryl to watch the 6th Harry Potter film at Downtown Disney and had waaay too much Cherry Coke to drink (Wednesday, 15th July)
- Went to this “upscale” burlesque club in Manhattan Beach where my sister, her friends and I were the youngest in the club; plus had one too many cocktails that…
- I ran hungover the next day (Saturday, 18th July) and was only able to do 6.5 miles out of my scheduled 12-mile run!
- Played in a soccer tournament for the first time in 85°+ F heat AND was on the winning team (Monday, 20th July AM-afternoon)
- Attended my soccer supporters’ group “Legends Night” and met some great former-Chelsea FC players and made new friends (Monday, 20th July – evening)
- Continued the party by going back to Pasadena for some more Chelsea FC festivities at Lucky Baldwin’s
- Watched her beloved Blues beat Inter Milan at the Rose Bowl (Monday, 21st July)
- finally, walked a 2-mile recovery run on Wednesday, 22nd July.
So yeah, in-between all that (but for Monday and Tuesday this week), it was work or volunteer work.
Oh, and am I ready for the San Francisco Half-Marathon this Sunday? NOPE. But I’m going to go easy on the run and just enjoy the scenery. I can always beat my personal best in October or December 😉
