Wrapping up Race Week

Happy Monday all!

I’m back from Philadelphia and enjoying a much needed rest day after running the RnR Philly half yesterday. I’ll have much to say about Sunday in my recap later this week. But for now, I’m joining Holly and Tricia once again for the #WeeklyWrap link-up.

Monday, 9/12:  Yoga

Tuesday, 9/13:  3.2 mile run

Wednesday, 9/14:  6 mile progressive run with 1 mile warm-up and cool down

Thursday, 9/15:  Rest day

Friday, 9/16:  Final run of the week – 3 miles and the legs were feeling really good!

Saturday, 9/17:  I headed to Philadelphia with my husband. Travel was super easy and after dropping our bags at the hotel we headed for the expo. We breezed through packet pick-up and then my husband was very patient as I checked out all of the vendors. All of the Brooks T-shirts were super cute and I just couldn’t resist adding one to my collection. I also couldn’t resist a new headband from my fave Sparkly Soul, and picked up an organic multivitamin designed for runners. We took a walk and then wandered the Terminal Market for lunch (my gosh you can get lost in that place!) before heading back to the hotel to chill.

Sunday, 9/18: RnR Philly

So how was your week? Do you shop the expos or avoid them?

  2. I’m a sucker for expos too and always buy way to much. I just bought a few sparkly soul headbands at the last expo I went to. Love them!

  3. Love that tee you got! I still wish Dublin had decent merchandise. Sigh. I love a good expo but if I have the kids with me I just can’t shop the way I’d like. Can’t wait to hear about the race!

  4. I love the shirt that you picked up at the Expo! The Brooks shirts were super cute, it was hard to resist the urge to buy a few!

  5. If I have time, I do like perusing the Expo, but I was in a bit of a rush on Friday evening after work so I didn’t get to fully take advantage! Can’t wait for your recap!

  6. I usually enjoy perusing at expos but sometimes the crowds just get too much for me and I have to make a speedy exit. I look forward to hearing about the race!

  8. That’s a great picture of you at the expo. That is a very cute shirt. If the expo is on the smaller side, I’m more likely to browse around and buy something. But, I get very overwhelmed at the mega expos and just want out as quickly as possible. Thanks for linking, Michelle!

  9. I love those shirts. Whenever I’m at a good expo, I can’t stop buying things 🙂 Btw, can’t wait to hear about the race. Keep updating.
