I had a pretty good weekend!! Friday night was terrible at work with a big emergency where the patient died and it was good to just go over to my BF's house and have a couple of drinks and chill out. We didn't really talk about that at all, just listened to music and talked about other things!

Even though I spent the weekend at his place I did a lot of my own things. He had things he wanted to do and usually he kind of expects me to just hang out. But I shopped and went to the gym and was much happier being able to do my own thing.

Saturday I ran 12 miles in an hour and a half which is a huge improvement in my time. There's a big race coming up next Saturday so I am officially ready! If this race goes well I'm definately going to do the half marathons in the fall.

That is an excellent running time for 12 miles - YAHOO!! Can't wait to hear about your races. Sorry to hear you had such a rough time at work. I am glad to hear you are doing your own things instead of just hanging out with the bf who expects it - sounds like a better balance and way to go!

Yes it was better and I was happier. Nothing I hate more than just hanging around and then feeling unappreciated.

The running time averaged 7.5 minute miles. There's a couple of mini triathalons I could do except that I HATE swimming. LOL. I've been out on my mountain bike at least twice a week as well.
