I tried an easy 3.3 miles / 5.3K last Saturday. Lordie and Diddy were happy to accompany me. :) Amazing blue sky, freezing weather, sunny...I couldn't stop smiling. :)
Plus yesterday (Sunday) I tried my luck at a long run. Runningbuddy A and I found a paved 5K path around a lake, and decided to run these 5K laps to see if The Foot would hold up. If The Foot would bug me again, I could just go back to the car, and A could finish the long run. After a little over 5 laps, 16.3 miles / 26.1K we decided to call it quits. :) When we headed out for the run I figured I would be perfectly happy if The Foot would be okay for 9.4 miles / 15K. I couldn't believe that I had actually finished the long run - without limping, crawling, etcetera due to The Foot. :) Today there's a bit of a tired feeling going on in The Foot, but I guess that's okay. :) I celebrated with sushi! :)
Hmmm...sushi...that brings me to 'post long run' snacks. :) What's your favorite 'post long run' snack?

Love the photos! I often run laps to make logistics easier for long runs. Good to hear your foot was fine.
Post long run: Chocolate milk and salty potato chips.
So glad the foot is hanging in there! Love the pups!
Loving the photos!
Great job on the long run and no foot troubles.
Post runs food changes with the season. Currently I just want "real" food after running. Doesn't really matter what.
haha doesn't matter, anything with calories to be found in the (very empty) fridge will do :)
After the Miami marathon on Sunday I had some incredible cuban food, mojito and chocolate cake:) Definitely the best post marathon race food I've had.
oh my gosh are they the most adorable things ever. yeahhhh for no foot pain, isn't it just weird to finish and realize that something didn't hurt?! love it.
