Running on ice cream to overcome stress

I completed day 19 (16th day of 10 miles) with the 6.5 (52: 09) miles left in my 10 mile day.  I have said it everyday for how long now, it was beyond HOT!  When I finished my run I could hear across the field, my sister and her family in their pool.  I wish I could have taken the kids and jumped right in but nooooo.  I had to pack them up, pick up my mom and head into town to retrieve my car from the garage.

Do you remember that we just bought house and Hubbs just lost his job?  So of course, my car would need repairs!  Isn't that how things usually work?!  Good thing I have running to keep the stress at bay.

We did bribe thank grammy for going with us with ice cream!  Sadly I must admit that it made up the majority of my dinner but it was delicious and day 19 of running deserved to be celebrated.

Who can pass up seeing their kids sugar-laden-dairy-product semi-covered?

Day 20 started at 1 a.m. when I finally got to bed after cleaning the house (parts of it) and packing for our time in VA.  A mere 4 hours and 12 mintues later LBM said it was morning.  Ugh!  I wish I could say that I was out the door super early and got a long run in but instead LBM and I snuggled.  We got sissy up and ready and off to school before heading out the door for 3.5 (29:02).  By 7 a.m. it was already hot again.  Although I think I am getting alittle used to the heat and I am usually remembering to take fluids and actually drink them. 

But really, who needed fuel this morning? 

Not me!  Remember?

I had a hot fudge sundae last night!

Stacie @ Impossible is Nothing is hosting a Bondi Band Giveaway!  Come on now you've seen dozen of photos of my frizz-curl-mess of hair.  Add a little heat and humidity and it's everywhere.  So I can always us more Bondi Bands to keep it under control and to give you something new to look at when I post those after run photos!  Go over and check it out.  Tell Stacie that Shelly sent you.  Thanks.
