Recovery Run

I ran a loop around the park (1.5 miles) today and then went to Zumba. My thighs are sore if I squat, but running isn't too bad. I'm going to see how far I can run comfortably tomorrow and ease back into it. I'm planning a long run next week and then I'll officially be training for the MO' Cowbell Half Marathon on October 5. They posted this video today, apparently the inspiration for the race: http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/more-cowbell-with-will-ferrell-on-snl--video--saturday-night-live--nbc/n41046 More cowbell! 

The instructor at the gym texted me to let me know that she missed me in class while I was gone. I missed going to class too! Especially when I thought I'd be there yesterday and Mondays are my favorite and then I was still travelling! Apparently it was really good, too!!! At least I'll be there Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday this week. I hope! 

My sister specifically took this picture for the blog:

This is my dad's new tractor. Don't imagine for a second that I could drive it. :) I look like a farmer, though, right? (Proudly wearing my race shirt!)
