Costume run part 1

Sunday was a fun day!

We all dressed in costume for our 6 mile recovery run. The person that gave us the biggest donation got to pick the costume we ran in. LOL My friend Deidra won the contest with a $100 donation. The costume... Marilyn Monroe.

That's right, 6am I woke up so tired I could barely open my eyes and my stomach turned but I made myself get up seeing Davy was already up and in the shower ready to volunteer I had to. I'll be honest I was quite the grump attaching my wig and putting on makeup. Not because I had to wear a costume but just the sheer fact I had to wake up. I went to bed close to 2am the previous night. Davy and his band were playing at my new favorite hot spot downtown 1st and hope. I couldn't miss it:)

After lots of moans and grumbles I got out of it when I got to the training site. My lower back/butt and knee are still hurting me. I took it easy most of the way which seemed to be fine with the group since they were all dealing with things as well. Yiaesa's knee is hurting her and she had to walk the whole way so Sage stayed with her. Reena wasn't feeling well so I stayed with her. and Samantha's father passed away last week so she wanted to run so Cena stayed with her. It all worked out. I have to say we have a pretty supportive team we hang with each other making sure each one makes it. Which we did:) We also found a penny along the way. We must be on the right track;)

After completion we all went out to breakfast at this little spot we pass every week along our runs. We had delicious breakfast and got to hang. It was nice. Davy and Reena's friend Sara volunteered so they came with us. It was nice introducing everyone to Davy.

When we left Davy said he wanted to take a nap. I didn't. In case you don't know I hate taking naps. I always feel like I'm wasting time when I take them even when I need them. But ironically I started talking giberash. It was a clear indication I needed one. So on our way home we stopped at Trader Joes to pick up their donation for the fund raising party. They donated lots of yummy snacks! Then we went home. The moment we both laid down we were out. I ended up sleeping for about 4 hours. UGH. I needed it though. Since we didn't get much sleep the night before.

We finished the night at the John Mayer concert. All in all it was a good day!
