*So my goal of eating pasta the day before the race was not reached. I ate some barbecue instead. But the more important goal of healthily running the half marathon was reached. I ran it an 1:55... MUCH better than I expected to do. I felt like I was going at a reasonable pace the whole time and I never felt too winded. It was a great experience! I think I'm going to sign up for one in October soon!
*I declare this summer the Summer of Outdoor Patio Drinking. For some reason, I always take the outdoor patios in Boston for granted in the summer even though it's the most beautiful time of year here. I have already gone to Daedulus, Tia's and Charlie's Beer Garden this year. I have plans in the works to go back to Tia's and to Sail Loft as well as The Roadhouse in Brighton for their outdoor patio experience. I love warm weather!
*I can't wait for all of the travel I have planned for this summer. A rundown:
June 4th-7th: Florida
July 12th-14th: Portland and other areas of Maine
July 18th-25th: Cape Cod
I would like to plan another weekend trip back to Portland sometime in August perhaps, and I'll be going home to Wilbraham at least a weekend or two. I CAN'T WAIT!
