Pippy Run No. 1

Saturday morning I met with my team (or half of it) for a group run.  When I left Waterville it was 40 degrees and the sun was peaking through.  When I got to Livermore it was a nice wintery mix.  Another bonus is that Cooper had to come with.  My dog is a total crackhead when it comes to running.  Either he chokes himself to try to be in front of everyone, or he jerks me off the road in order to sniff poop.  My goal was to finish the run without Cooper tripping someone, and we were successful.  But really, I am so very out of running shape.  I'm officially in do or die training mode.

After the run we went to our capitan's house to go over race logistics.  We were all supposed to bring a little snack for after the run.  I thought it was funny that we all brought cupcakes, chocolate muffins, donuts, coffee cake, and other unhealthy options.  My kind of ladies.  And the highlight of my day was holding Jess's 7-month-old.  She's pretty much the sweetest baby ever.
