Scenes from a pretty great Sunday.

After many delays getting home from Denver last night (two planes, a gate change, sparks from an engine, several fire trucks, a new part for the engine and a pilot that made up 30 minutes in the air to get us home to Omaha) I got home around 1:30 this morning.

After church and sushi with some new friends, I hit the grocery store, went for a run and then proceeded to do all of my laundry and clean my bathroom.

I’m currently on the couch, watching “How to get Away with Murder” by candlelight.

Like my shirt says, Sunday Funday indeed.

The mind and body are pretty freaking amazing.

I was not in a good frame of mind to run today. I think I have a weird infection or something causing pain in a few of my teeth. Like the kind of pain that nearly has me in tears. I’ve dosed with meds and I’m rubbing numbing stuff on it every time the feeling starts to come back. I’m going to call the Dentist in the morning. I also did not get enough sleep Friday night and didn’t catch up on enough last night. So I’m exhausted. Not a good combo to run long with.

Add to that, it’s cold outside, windy, and this run had to be completed on the treadmill. Things did not bode well for my 9 miles.

But ya know what? Once I pushed past the first 2 miles, where I nearly cried from tooth pain, and my legs felt like pieces of wood, this run was pretty great!

My mind wandered to so many places during the run, my body relaxed and I enjoyed it. 

Things of note: my treadmill resets at 99:59 so I had to start it up again to finish the run. It also resets calories after 999. So that’s awesome.

9 miles//1:38:06//10:54 pace.

Boom.

Sunday Funday indeed.
