Today was so beautiful and somewhat warm! The sun was out, bright and shining and if I haven't said it before, where I live is the most gorgeous place when it is sunny. I had clinicals today but the day went really smoothly, and wasn't too hectic. I enjoyed my sunny drive home and I immediately got changed and went for a run. Actually that is not true...I almost talked myself out of it and I even changed from my scrubs into jeans and such. But something in me said, "Don't waste this awesome day!" and I threw on my running clothes and before I could miss out, I went for my run. I took it slow and just enjoyed it. After all this run wasn't on my schedule and there was no particular goal for it...just to enjoy the sunshine by doing something I love.

Gorgeous views!

I have run this route too many times to count. I am very thankful!

Besides enjoying the day, the run was really beneficial because my hamstrings and calves were pretty sore from yesterdays hard run. My legs felt pretty heavy but I just considered today a "shake it out" day and I might try to do these runs more often. I have found in the past that they really help alleviate the soreness.
