I hope everyone is having a wonderful Wednesday so far! Today's post is just a bunch of randomness that I feel like talking about!
First off, Happy Birthday to my awesome mom! She is 53 today but doesn't look and certainly doesn't act like it! Haha, she is one cool mom!

Next, today I ran for the first time since my half marathon on Sunday. I felt really good and had a little speed in my tank. My dog was also super stoked to be running for the first time in 4 days! I added in 4X400 repeats with 400 recovery just to make it a little bit interesting!
Third, I got some new running shoes yesterday! I had intentions of getting another pair of Brooks, from the man at the running store had me try on some Pearl Izumis and I absolutely love them! I needed something with cushion, but not too much, and I needed a bit more flexibility than what the Brooks Ghost 8 offered.
I have signed up for another race and am really focusing on speed for this race! It is the Lazy Lobster 10 Miler down in Wareham, MA! I love the 10 mile distance, it is shorter than a half but still a nice challenge! The next few weeks I am really focusing on speed. I do not care as much about distance, but I am still going to do a few longer runs! I cannot wait to do some track repeats, hills, sprints, and other necessary workouts to give me a confidence and speed boost!
Finally, my mom and I are going out to dinner tonight to our favorite local restaurant. We go AT LEAST once a week, if not more! They have the best house made blueberry ale with floating blueberries in it... It is the bomb.com! I usually get some type of salad with protein, and really like their salmon and steak tips, so I'll most likely go for one of those! Yum, I'm so excited!
Have a fabulous day!
