My Birthday!

After we finished with Matthew's day it was my turn;)  I know I am 34 and still obsessed with celebrating my own special day!  Anyway, I had a great actual birthday.  We had Khalid and Susan over for dinner and stayed up chatting and having a great time.  My parents came into town for the weekend and it was so much fun.  Then on Sunday we did Bloomsday again.  I believe this is my 7th year!  It was great but it was damn hot!  One of the hottest Bloomsday's on record.  Nicole and I ran it in 1:43 but I didn't care.  I am still getting into the groove of running so I knew it was going to be a tad slower than normal.  I am getting more serious about my S2S training and found out that I will be runner #1.  That is 5 miles, then two 6+'s.  I am nervous but excited.  Also, I am officially at 16lbs lost in 6 weeks so that is exciting!  It is a lot easier to run when you are not carrying extra weight.  I only have roughly 25 to go so I am just about 1/2 way there!  I am hoping by S2S I am a bit closer.  We will see.  I am not putting expectations on myself just taking it one day at a time.  I still continue to feel amazing so that is all that matters!
