10 miles with friends and 1 mile with Brooke!
We then went around town, stopping at random stores to look at…

I love exploring our area.

We stopped at Harmon’s to admire cheese.

And while we were there, they had us sample some soup to convince us to buy their meal deal… all of this for $20. It was delicious.

We finished off with the College Football Playoff National Championship.
Now into the tangents:
*I got a phone call yesterday from a doctor who helped Brooke when she was in the hospital for her bone infection almost two years ago. I guess there have been a few more kids in their hospital since Brooke, with the exact same problem, after they had a tonsillectomy. He is writing another study about her and what happened to her!
*Jenisy taught me a great way to activate the glutes before each run… all you need is a wall. Here is the link to the video to teach you how to do it properly. I’m doing this before every run now.

*They brought candy salads for us for the airplane and the trip. We all had canker sores by the end.

*Learn from me and mark your bag, or at least put a tag on it! I have never thought I would need that for my carry-on, but now I will be writing my name all over it
I was in the last row on the plane, and so when I was getting off, there was only one last bag left, my bag (I thought). I grabbed it, went home, and hung out for a while, and when I went to unpack it, it was definitely not my bag. Of course, I had packed my nicest clothes and makeup, even though I barely used any makeup and lived in my running clothes… I took the bag that I had back to the airport (just a little one), and nobody had brought one in. I left my name and number at the airport, and a few hours later, I got a phone call saying that someone was bringing my bag back later. I was SO grateful it worked out because I was freaking out that a lot of my favorite things were gone for good.

*We made my mom’s lasagna a few days ago, and it is still my favorite.

*This is just so incredible.

Anything you do before the run to activate things?
