Road Trippin’

Even though my race was cancelled, we still wanted to travel to Eastern Kentucky to visit with my family.

I am the worst over-packer.  This is for two people for a 3 day weekend.  It’s embarrassing.

We listened to my iHeartRadio.  I love The Bobby Bones Show!

Being a vegetarian on the road in small town Kentucky isn’t easy.

We made the regrettable mistake of stopping at Taco Bell.  “Run From The Border”

Then we listened to Kathy Griffin’s new comedy album…HIIILARIOUS!

There is barely any cell service, let alone wi-fi, so I brought my recent giant stack of catalogs for shopping entertainment.

And, most importantly…we stopped at the last chance Starbucks in London, KY. Goodbye civilization. Now entering Appalachia.

Just because…

Did you race this weekend? Long run? Tell me about it!!

Do you pack your own food when you travel OR do you go for the ease of fast food?

The Friday Five

1.  I did an easy 7 miler this morning and discovered a “new to me” station on iHeartRadio…Spin Cycle.  It’s Pop Music Club Remixes and they’re all perfect uptempo’s for running.

2.  Breakfast for lunch!  I usually eat a salad for lunch, but I wanted something a little heartier for tomorrow’s long run.  As my friends will attest, I have a true love for oatmeal…especially these steel-cut oats!

3.  Dr. Seuss must have seen the elevation chart for tomorrow’s 20 miler!

4.  Salad and Veggie Burger at J’s.  It’s tried and true before a long run.  BUT…the secret is the Cornbread Croutons!!!  They aren’t on the menu, but if you ask your server, they’ll make them for you.  Do it.  Now.  Seriously.
