Took my marathon shirt on a test run yesterday! Excited to rock it in Dublin next week!

TBT – last few miles of MCM 2012. If you think I look funny check my shadow behind me (my sister) #anguish

Hope this foul picture started your Thursday with a laugh!

My hair is long enough for a sock bun again!

I don’t care that this trend is 4 years old, it’s always been a favorite. Sweet bun by day, flowing curls by night. It’s a win-win!

TBT Ragnr

As referenced earlier this week, I ran Ragnar DC two years ago with (L-R) my friend Amy and the fabulous @novemberhypomnema @94monkeys @fromthebackofthepack and @veggielife

Tumblr Ragnr was 2 years ago!

This is me with possible poison paint on my lips to kiss my 3rd leg completion check!

Everything about my trip to Maine was wonderful.

Thursday: Got a run in before flying into Boston. T & I got picked up by the Father of the Bride who drove us to Maine. Wow, York Beach, ME is gorgeous. Her dad gave us quite the tour. Beers, dinner, hanging out with the Bride and Groom to be before everyone else rolled into town.

Friday: Up hella early for 14 chilly, but beautiful ocean side miles. Saw the groom to be and MOB while out. Then it was time to meet up with the Bridal party for mani/pedis (my feet were thankful). I got OPI’s French Quarter for your thoughts as my nail color (gray) and I’m obsessed. Then it was rehearsal time, followed by the rehearsal dinner, and welcome party. It was great to see so many old friends!

Saturday: WEDDING DAY! All the bridesmaids spent the night with the Bride to be at her family’s cottage. We had the beauty squad come to the house for hair and makeup (well I did my own makeup). Lots of mimosas, music, and laughs. What a stunning bride – I’m obsessed with her dress. Beautiful wedding from start to finish. The Bridesmaids and Bride got to ride a rented trolley to the ceremony and then the whole Bridal party took the trolley to various places for pictures. Shame on me for not really taking any, can’t wait to see the professional ones! The reception was a HUGE dance party, even T and I danced because almost every single person was out there, so we got some liquid courage and joined in!

Sunday: Bagels by the beach to wish the Bride and Groom well before their 2 week honeymoon in Greece. I can’t believe one of my best friends is married, I remember almost 5 years ago when she told me she thought he was “the one.” T and I got a ride down to Boston for 24 hours of fun. We checked out historic sites, lots of strolling by the water, went to the Boston Marathon finish line, Fenway Park, Boston Commons. Ate yummy Italian in the North End, I of course got chicken, broccoli, ziti.

Monday: We actually slept in, we needed it. I did have to forfeit my planned MA miles, but we had walked over 11 miles on Sunday. Went to Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall, visited more historic stuff like the Boston Tea Party ships and Museum (T really wanted to do it). We got a late lunch at the Parish Cafe (one of my favorites) and then it was off to the airport.
