So, I didn't keep track of what I ate Friday. But I did a fartlek - warm up, then 5 minutes fastish, 3 minutes slow, then 4, 3, 2, 1, minutes, always faster, ending in basically a sprint, with 3 minutes slow in between. It was really warm and sunny! I was sweating so much. But it started raining again in the afternoon.
That night I went with Max and Rachel and met Meagan at Fire Bar for a cocktail, then made our way to Dublin Inn for karaoke. I did end up singing Where is the Love with Rachel towards the end of the night, after I had basically lost my voice because I was so thirsty and had been yelling along to everyone's songs all night. Rachel and I like to talk like the twins when we're out in public and for some reason no one finds it as amusing as us...
Saturday, I didn't have to work till 12, but I was awake at 6:30 for some reason and couldn't sleep. I watched some tv, cleaned my room a bit, and then went for a run around Benther Berg, the little "mountain" next to my house. My GPS some how quit working after 2 miles, but it was still timing and I know it's about 5.1ish miles. It took me 46 minutes. I did some pre run yoga before it and I felt really good, so I think it helped. It was drizzling and cold the whole time. I drank some delicious cappuccino fsoy milk from Rossman (it's so good!) and tea and laid in my bed till I had to work. Sometimes I just can't make it down to family breakfast. I wasn't in the mood for noodles, and a lot of times on Saturdays they just have a light lunch because the parents are busy and then they'll eat their hot meal later, but the mom was already cooking. They did have some yummy chili noodles that they got as a gift like 2 years ago. Gritta ate some and needed milk and everything. Germans are such wimps about spicy things. Rachel and I just kind of hung out in the kitchen while the girls played and the twins slept. Magnu was gone which makes things much easier. The twins got up and then we took them all outside for a little excursion. Luckily it had stopped raining and wasn't so freezing. We made Henny and Johanna ride bikes so they'd get tired, and took the twins in the stroller. In the end we all survived the way back. Gritta was just coming back from the Hofladen too so we ate the cake she had made the day before when they had visitors and I made another coffee and then held two stinky babies on my lap while we watched pole vault and gymnastics videos until Carolyn was ready to talk.
We took the twins up and kind of half got the girls ready for bed. I was trying to watch the Beloit Relays online too. The parents had planned to go out and have us babysit, but changed their mind, so they had a friend over and just ate in front of the fire. I had a leftover rosinnen brötchen from breakfast with butter and honey and jam, and an apple with this really good cranberry goat cheese. Then I watched more track meet and fell asleep right before the record winner vaulted.
