This morning started off on a bright and sweaty note with a beach-side run!
I felt really good during the first 2 miles, but at around mile 2 1/2 I saw my younger cousin who runs cross country (he’s really good!) running with his team and I sprinted to catch up with him. Let me tell ya, worst idea EVER! I got a terrible, terrible side cramp and couldn’t even breathe without feeling like my side was on its freakin’ period. I had to stop for a while and forgot to pause my Runkeeper app, so my average time was not where Id like it to be, but oh well! At least I got out there.
After my run, I drove home to have some breakfast. Pretty standard, as usual. I also had some really delicious mixed fruit on the side! Beth has got me following her lead and I’m becoming a watermelon MONSTER.
When I was down by the beach, I ran by some vendors who were setting up for a big festival! I love anything carnival-like and had no problem persuading Kyle to come enjoy the seaside with me (a.k.a drag him along to shop with me).
OMG GIRAFFE <3
They had the cutest jewelry there. Unfortunately, I didn’t end up buying anything. I’ll be heading up to Santa Barbara for the 4th of July and plan on dropping some greens at the Lululemon there, so I figured it would be best to save up a little. Workout clothes>regular clothes
We spent a couple of hours wandering the streets and eating some delicious food! We got a root beer float made with homemade soda and carne asada nachos. Talk about yum!
Now I’m baking up a berry delicious cheesecake treat for a kickback I’ll be going to tonight as well as some sangria made from sparkling wine. Yum!
Side note: Sadly, Google Reader is meeting it’s maker in a few days, but I’ve found some solace in Bloglovin! I’d absolutely love it if you followed me there 
What outside activities have you done so far this weekend?
xoxo Christine
Looks like a great weekend!! We’ve spent the entire day outside in the pool
That sounds so wonderful! I bet Rylnn had a great time
I’m so jealous of all your beach dates! Oh to live in southern Cali…..
Come visit haha!
Too jealous that you get to run on the beach. And can go hang out there whenever you want! And I’m overjoyed that you’re devouring watermelon like it’s your job–it’s all part of my secret plan to take over the world, eventually. One watermelon eater at a time. 😀
The only outside activity I’ve done this weekend is run…and give Rosie a bath in between thunderstorms. The weather’s been so rainy and gray and miserable and humid that I just want nothing to do with it. Except run it in, because I’m obsessed with running in the rain.
It’s pretty great! The only thing is, though, that I’ve lived here basically my whole life so I tend to take it for granted. And I really hate being cold, so I’m a weanie about getting in the water!
Running in the rain is awesome!
Looks like a great weekend! I LOVE your dress!
It was a ton of fun! Thanks girl!
