That's so cool that the marine found you on your post the other day!!<br /><br />I also really love the turquoise and tan. You could live in New Mexico with an outfit like that ;) <br /><br />I am not into virtual races at all, but because it's you, I signed up. I'll have to figure out 1) what 7 miles is in KM and 2) a good route to include some hills. let me know when you are going to do it so maybe I can coordinate with you! (also do you know how the sizes run on the tees? I ordered a M because US shirts always seem so big - I'm generally and L...)runlaugheatpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233445490233555647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-89484486147213240192020-06-08T10:37:00.995-05:002020-06-08T10:37:00.995-05:00I love that turquoise and tan outfit!

No...I love that turquoise and tan outfit! So cute!<br /><br />Not much to report on the good news side of things. it's definitely summer. And hurricane season. So it's hot and humid and raining all the time now. Running is going well, but I miss racing and community and so many other things.Runs With Pugshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171128110788554302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-6991133046189498742020-06-08T07:54:32.442-05:002020-06-08T07:54:32.442-05:00I will always be jealous of your summer weather.

Le sigh. There's no middle ground here. <br /><br />Surprisingly most of my runs haven't been that bad even with the high humidity and heat. I'm glad you kept up with the 5ks! It will be fun to go back and look at your weekly progress when you're done!

But these last few weeks have gotten a bit "obligatory." I'm glad the challenge was there, though.
