I feel like I was really lazy this weekend, but I did do my prescribed workout, so I guess I shouldn’t worry about it. The only run I did was early Saturday morning, and I’m not working out again until this afternoon, so it makes sense that I’d feel like I’ve hardly worked out at all.

I got up bright ‘n’ early Saturday morning and drove to Audubon Park. It was already hot and humid. This is what I hate about running in the morning – the humidity. You can barely breathe, the air’s so thick. I like it better in the evening, when it may be hotter, but the air is less muggy.

So I got to the park, noticed some people standing around, among them two women I knew as the running coach (Patience) and the TNT person Jennifer. A few other people ended up in the group, another woman running the MCM, and some other women (all females, hmmm) walking the Bermuda Marathon. Apparently there are only six or eight people from New Orleans doing the MCM.

The schedule called for 2-4 miles, I figured since I’ve been running for a while, I’d do 4. But no one else was doing four, so I only did two. I did, at least, run the entire path of the park, but whatever. It was definitely easier to run on the paved path of the park rather than the dirt and gravel of the levee. I think I’ll be going to Audubon Park more often this summer, after work. After the run, we ate bagels and chatted. Everyone seemed nice.

Spent the rest of Saturday relaxing and napping. Saturday night, we went to Polly & Colin’s and ate dinner and watched a boxing match. It was actually a lot more entertaining than I’d anticipated. Had a really good time. Nick & Annie were there too, which is always a treat since I hardly ever see them.

On Sunday George and I went to see Finding Nemo. I loved it. And then spent the rest of the day relaxing, napping, reading. I got the new Bill Bryson book in the mail on Friday, so I read most of it this weekend. Boy, I know more a lot more about the history of the earth than I did before this weekend!
