Here we are afterwards. Never mind the hugs vein popping out of my beet red face.

Carbs & 13 Miles
Here's how I started my long weekend, with the Habit. It was Jason's idea to get burgers last night, and since I've had them before a long run, why not? I love the Habit! We started with 2 burgers (Jason got the double), 2 fries, 1 shake (for me) and 1 soda (for Jason).
We demolished everything. It was actually mostly me. I ended up eating most of the 2 fries (I didn't touch the nasty soda). I don't like whipped cream, and forgot to ask them not to add it, but I didn't eat it. I loved every minute!!
I was up at 4:30 this morning, to have some coffee, eat some toast and things pass that needed to before a long run. I met my gym friend at The American River Trail and she was so kind to pace me on her bike, while I ran 13 miles. She was great and kept me entertained while I ran. I had some pain in my right hip and needed to walk a little and had 2 bathroom breaks. All in all, it was a pretty good run. I finished in 2:19 (including all mentioned above). I walk, if needed, during the practice 13, because I don't want to injure something 2 weeks prior to the race. During the race, I'll kick the pain in the ass and keep going.
