Monday... rest day swap - 8/19/13

I brought all my running stuff to work so I could get to the gym afterwards.  Being so tired lately, I like to run on the treadmill (despite the lovely weather) because it forces me to keep running!

I jumped on the Redline around 5:15 or so to head to FFC Lincoln Park on North Avenue.

After I got off and started my walk to the gym, I remembered that I had a coupon for new free panties at Victoria's Secret... so I went in to redeem that.  Then as I passed by teh Gap, I thought I should pick up something for Emily's bachelorette party gift (yes, I should've gotten that at VS, but thankfully the Gap has fun stuff now too!).  I managed to by myself an $8 pair of pants (they're super fun!) and a sweater as well as some additional panties for Emily (and me!  haha).  At that point, I was feeling really hungry and knew I couldn't make it through a 90 minute run, so I walked over to Whole Foods for dinner.

I love walking around Whole Foods since the clientele is so varied:  it runs the gamut from hippies with dreadlocks to Yuppie dad walking around shopping with their kids with beers in their hands!  I just went directly to the salad bar and loaded up on a bunch of stuff.  I tend to eat vegetarian while I'm there since there are so many options!  I sat and ate at a table outside in the lovely summer evening air and when I was done, I was without pretty much any energy and just decided to head home!  So much for my workout!

When I got home (the train took FOREVER!), it was just about 8pm and I climbed into bed with Ferracat, set my alarm for 5am to make up the run Tuesday morning and promptly passed out!!!
