saturday: my first double digit run since late january in phoenix (sat 4.3.10, 10 miles at 10:25 pace) that went *really* well....
(runners will know, but for those that don't, sometimes runs go fabulously and sometimes they go horribly. and sometimes they're just okay. you can do the same prep before the run and it's literally a roll of the dice as to how it'll go. so when the GOOD ones happen? you love it and it instills in you why you do it to begin with...)
sunday: everyone is hunting eggs or giving baskets to kiddos, and the rest are with family or friends, or both. mark and i? decide that once the breakfast burritos and a little bit of work for me are done, it's time to explore by bike! we start with a vague plan, & wind up riding in to some of the flooded mississippi river trails (mud, water, logs and all), find the higher ground routes, more trails, and lots of exploring! 21.5 miles later? an awesome tour of st paul has happened and despite the saddles being a little sore, we'll take the 2 hour workout adventure that was more fun than feeling like work...
end the night with some homemade pasta and a long overdue (like *years*) dinner date with friends and that? is a great weekend!
up this week? work work swim run bon jovi work & riding. the new challenge is riding 150 miles in 2 days in june. the bike and i? best get to it on being bff's....

sounds like you had a really fabulous weekend, Jen! Yay : ) And your library post (prior post), So sad!! Some people are really crabby. I was a bit on edge when we were at the library this past Friday, found myself hushing the girls more than usual (you weren't there to save us if we encountered crabbies!). But it went fine : )
Have a super week!!
Sounds like a nice weekend.
I like the comparison to throwing the dice! That is so true: you never know what kind of run you are going to get!
