It’s so true that you only regret the runs you don’t do.
Last night, I was both seriously dragging and regretting skipping my runs this weekend. I was taking my time getting out the door when my coach g-chatted me and said “No more skipping runs! Go lace up!”
Caught.
Of course, once I hit the water, I was glad I was out there.
It was an absolutely gorgeous night, even if it was pretty steamy.
When I ran past Pier I cafe, I was actually thinking how nice it would be to run into someone I wanted to see–since 90% of the time you run into someone, it’s never someone you want to see. I’d seen Erica tweet about how she was going out for a run, and I hoped I might run into her.
And then I heard one of my favorite people calling my name. Emily was having a picnic with a friend of hers, and I sat down and chatted for awhile. Her friend recognized me because of my obsession with this purple top. Maybe I need more… (Speaking of Lululemon, they have an awesome post on their blog about marathon training and nutrition.)
And then I got up and finished my run home with a big smile on my face.
No idea why I chose Frank Sinatra lyrics to name my last post on this…
As I mentioned in my last post, I've really been going through it with headaches.…

I read The Midnight Library over the weekend, and I need to talk about it.…

Sounds like an awesome run! I don't know if I woul d be able to sit down, chat.. and then run again! I think I'd find myself wakling home!
Yay!! I'm glad you made it out!! I'm reallly hoping I feel better so I can pound the pavement today. That's hilarious what you said about running into people you WANT to run into! SO TRUE!! :)
Good for you! And that purple is so pretty on you. You're looking quite fit there, ma'am! :)
aww you rock. Runs by the wata are the best.
Sounds like a great run! I love that top! :)
there is nothing wrong about being recognized solely based on a lululemon top.
@Emily: Truth.
This makes me want to run in NYC - on the "bucket list", and I'm thinking I need to find whatever trail it is you were on! :)
Come!
Aw, so sweet! If I'd known you'd be out there, I would've headed south instead of north so I could bump into you! Next time....
@Erica Sara: Yes! We need to make an *actual* running date instead of me just hoping I'll bump into you ;)
Great run! That is the best. I love that you were recognized by your top. The only reason I have so many is because I don't have laundry in my building, so I pretty much never do laundry. But maybe it is time for you to get another, haha. Maybe another color of that same style since you love it?
Gorgeous pictures!! I have yet to go on a run in NYC...someday!
yes you need to come run here!
