- FATM... Last week was Spike's birthday and to celebrate I took him to see one of his fav bands, Florence & The Machine, Tuesday night. They played at Fox Theatre in downtown Detroit, easily one of the most beautiful venue's I have ever been to in my life. It was SUCH a good show and now I heart Florence even more!
- Don't Get Lapped... This morning Spike and I headed to the track together and the goal of the morning quickly became "don't let Spike lap you!" We had different workouts to run, but I held my own pretty well the one time we synced up on an 800; trailing just behind him until he dropped me like a hot potato in the last 200... he never did lap me though! Ha! (Nope, not competitive at all!)
- Minnesooota... Today is my Friday as tomorrow we're off to the Land of 10,000 Lakes for a family wedding this weekend. Twelve hours of driving awaits us but at least we arrive in time for dinner and we get to run our long runs Saturday morning on the Sakatah Singing Hills State Trail, a 41 mile paved rails to trails that just so happens to run behind where we're staying! Talk about lucking out eh? Do I have any MN readers out there? What do you think of this trail?

enjoy ur weekend!
I always get lapped at the track. So many speedy CAR runners! I just try to see if I can get lapped a little later than usual. :)
Have a fun weekend!
Love when Fridays come early! :) And your eyes look fab in that last photo.
Ha! You said Minnesooota...I think I have a great Minnesooootian accent. And now I am going to be saying it like that for the rest of the day.....
Great job on the workout this AM! I need some good track time.
I've never been to Minnesota, but I have a feeling that if I did, at least outside of football season, I wouldn't want to leave.
That is a Beautiful Theater! Have fun this weekend.
Happy B-Day Spike. I remember going to the Fox to see Kung_fo movies..... HA
Flo and the Mac were amazing. And you are too my love. Remember, everything is a competition.
Have fun in Minnesota! Never been, but I'd like to. Rails to trails sounds fun..running 800's against a guy..I would be busting things pretty hard.
This was FATM concert number...? Three? ;) Love that you two go for experiences - I bet they put on an amazing show!
I'd assume Minnesooota is beeautiful this time of year! You two should be in for a treat on that long paved trail. Have fun!
My brother used to live just up the street from the Fox. You could see it from his living room windows. I've never been in the Fox there, but the Fox Theatre here is similarly stunning. I love to go!
Don't let him beat you to the alter this fall ;) Trip him if you have to.
