All kinds of runnin'

I've been doing all kinds of running the past week and a half, getting ready for my move to Durham.  I had a week off between my internships which involved a lot of packing, unpacking, moving things in and out of storage, spending time with my family, and running errands.  While I was home, I got to catch up with the whole fam, including Laura and my grandparents.  I even made it to one of Riley's soccer games.  I even managed to stick to my gym/running schedule while I was home.

I ended up stopping in Richmond on my way to Durham on Friday and got to spend the afternoon with Kim.  You would think after spending 3 months together, we'd get a little sick of each other.  And while I'll admit it is nice to have my own room, I miss Kim a ton!  So it was nice to catch up and do random things while we had the time.

I made it to Durham in one piece and unloaded my car.  I spent Saturday afternoon unpacking and getting settled in, even making a Target run (which is conveniently 4 miles away).  Friday night, we went to this great local restaurant and Retta (she's the lady who's house we're living in) showed me some good places to run, not to mention Whole Foods and a bunch of bakeries downtown that I should probably avoid.  :)

Saturday morning I got up and ran my 20 miles.  It went well, minus getting lost.  But I found some great running trails/tracks to keep my somewhat satisfied for my long runs.  Today I got up and ran my 10 miles - which felt like nothing compared to yesterday.  I checked out a new church, which I love, and now I'm just trying to recuperate from this weekend.  Joanna comes tomorrow and I can't wait.  If only I didn't have to work...
