Holy Hills

I forgot how hill Atlanta is.

This morning after seven glorious hours of sleep I headed out for an hour run. My only running option was to leave their development and run down up Lenox Road towards the mall.

Mile 1: 9:45 (conquered 2 hills, feeling good)

Mile 2: 10:10 (humidity, hills, more hills)

Mile 3: 9:30 (ran circles around Lenox Mall just to find some flat space)

Mile 4: 10:05 (hills but more downhill this time)

Mile 5: 10:00 (can I please be done? It’s hot, humid, and muggy)

Total: 54 sweaty minutes

This area of Atlanta has done a great job including sidewalks everywhere! I never once had to run on the street or worry about cars. It was actually fun running around the mall as there was a track club doing sprints in the parking lot!

I was sweaty and my hips were tight when I finished due to the hills but I felt energized and proud of myself for keeping healthy while on vacation!

Thank you Lululemon for keeping me somewhat cool due to your amazing tanks, sports bras, and tights. Without you I’d be miserable!

Breakfast

After stretching and a nice cool shower Meghan and I chatted over a delicious, cold bowl of cereal. I don’t eat cereal much but when I do it certainly hits the spot. This bowl was a mix of Kashi Whole Wheat Bisquits Cinnamon Harvest Squares and Quaker Oat Squares. My muscles were also thankful for the banana that I sliced and added to the top. Potassium does a body good! I highly recommend both cereals. They were crunchy, cinnamon, and filling.

Now we’re off to meet up with our other friends for either a day of shopping or laying by the pool. I hope the sun allows for the latter.
