Ciao 51 and Helloooo 52!

Me yesterday. Freezing but in my ivory attire and Burberry scarf.  Love. 51

Today. The birthday girl. 52. I'm having a blast!! Heading out shortly for dinner with folks. Great restaurant: Exchange Street Bistro.

Got to run during lunch time (look exhausted after a night out with my cousin Ellen). I like my new jacket and got a few cool comments at school. Just wish it were a little longer in front as it slides up. Still, I love Chicago; always have, always will. Thanks DZ. Next jacket….London Marathon! YAY!

 I finish the month with 102.5 miles and

a lot of back aches. And some terrific birthday presents!!!!!

Better to rest now because serious mileage will be soon!

ARGH!!

BTW. LOVE my new Saucony Peregrines (Thanks Paul for the tip!).  Running Warehouse had last year's model on sale….Sah-Weeet!!!!!
