Fall means

It has been BEAUTIFUL running weather the last week. However, it appears the cooler morning temperatures have made staying in warm beds a bit more harder to resist. This morning it was just Christy and I running. Even Bella didn't come! Quite a change from a few weeks ago when we had 10 runners. Christy was really happy though because it meant that she could run whatever pace she wanted. None of that fast running for her!

Wendy was signed up to run and I was looking forward to a mile by mile report of her Boston Qualifying performance at the Twin Cities Marathon. A great way to spend at least 26.2 minutes of the morning run and that doesn't include the detailing of all the different food available at the post race party. Alas, she didn't show.

I have never loved Nut Rolls as much as I did after the Twin Cities Marathon. I don't think I ever ate one before (unless I got one in my Halloween booty) or since. It ALMOST made up for the absence of beer. I just learned that Nut Rolls are made in St. Paul an are not made by one of the big candy companies. NOW I understand why they were at the Twin Cities Marathon. The bonus was that they were good too!

Sigh, I just hope that not too many of the summer runners go into winter hibernation.
