Day 14: 5 miles and 5 hours of dancing

Today it was super hot in the morning.  I even ran on the shady side of the street which I usually avoid because it means running literally next to the housing projects and that can be a bit scary.  I didn't actually quite get to 5 miles -- I did 4.8 because of the overage from yesterday's long run.  I got the run done at a decent pace considering my tiredness from the day before.

After the run it was scrub down the apartment like a maniac mode because my mother was coming to dog sit Lily while hubby and I attended April's wedding.  We got everything cleaned up pretty nicely and took her out to brunch before the long drive out to the Hamptons.

There was a bit of traffic on the drive but not too much.  The wedding was great and it was nice to see all of my college buddies.  I dressed relatively conservatively, rewearing the dress I wore as a bridesmaid in my sister's wedding.  I have one super sexy dress that I sometimes wear to weddings, and hubby was cheering for it, but I just felt too bloated to wear that one.

Hubby and me, I think that we clean up pretty well :-)

I didn't quite get to 5 hours of dancing because I was tired from all of the running, but I was still rather social.  The wedding was followed by a bonfire on the beach which was super cool.  Walking around in the sand was really soothing to my feet and legs.  Maybe weekly beach days will become a part of post-Paris marathon training.

Week 2 Summary:
Miles: 36
Pace: 11:58 min/mile (a lot faster than last week, probably because of the air conditioned treadmill running)
Stayed on Plan: Yes, for the most part.  I still need to get more consistent with the strength/core work part of my plan.
