Too Many Drinks to Run 13 Miles

Well, 13 miles at 7:45 pace didn’t happen on Sunday.  Erin and I went out to dinner on Saturday night and met some friends afterward in the city for some drinks.  We ended up staying out for a while, and I had a few lot more drinks than planned!  So even though I didn’t feel nearly as bad as I deserved to on Sunday, 13 miles was just not in the cards.

I’m getting ready to do the run right now, early Monday morning, to keep my training schedule on track.  Once I get back, I’ll write my normal post to let you know how it goes.  We made dinner for my dad and his wife for Father’s Day, so I have a great new recipe to post too!  See you then.
