A happy running moment and lazy girl meals.
Wednesdays are the days I like to meet up with my buddy Elyse for a sunrise run- the miles go by while we chat and catch up on each other’s lives. We met at 6 a.m., just before sunrise. We ended up covering a little over 5 miles. I always enjoy getting out with friendsContinue reading “A happy running moment and lazy girl meals.”
