When Catie was visiting Nashville, I took her to Bongo Java for what I think is the best coffee ever. It's a cute, indie, artsy coffee shop in the Belmont area of Nashville. I used to come here every morning before work and ordered the same exact thing each time. It got to the point that each time I visited, one of the guys behind the counter knew what I was going to order and had it ready for me as soon as I walked in the door. Celebrity status. Then sadly, I was cut off from Bongo Java coffee due to personal budget cuts.
Anyways while Catie was here, she suggested I get out of the house more often and blog from Bongo Java instead of home. I like where her head's at. So here I am. Drinking coffee, blogging, and people watching in Bongo Java. I'm actually having a hard time focusing on blogging because the people watching is goooood here.
So this week I didn't run as much as I wanted to. Like I wrote in the previous post, on Monday I ran almost 3 miles with Catie. Tuesday I took the day off to recover and relax (having visitors for one whole week is exhausting!). Wednesday I ran four miles on the treadmill at the YMCA. I'm starting to despise the whole treadmill thing, so yesterday (regardless of the fact that it was 20 degrees) I decided to run outside. I also just bought a hot pink long-sleeve Nike Pro running top that I couldn't wait to wear. Don't judge, at least it's getting me out and running!
So I was planning on running 3 miles but had to stop and turn around early because I was so damn cold. And it was icy so I was scared for my safety (that's what I'm telling myself). So I ended up running like one mile. Sad story.
This week I plan on running a total of 12 miles. Three days, four miles. I'm writing that here so I actually do it.
Side note: Catie emailed me this picture with the subject "This photo reminds me of you..."
I need to get out more often. At least she's pretty.
