31st Annual Seaside Shuffle 5k

It was cold for a race day but beautiful and sunny out! I'm happy to say I completed my goal of running the 3.1 miles without stopping for any walking breaks. Little steps! :)



All the female racers ran at 1:00pm and the males started at 2:00. It was definitely the smallest group of racers I've ever ran with, but I'm sure the cold weather had a lot to do with that. I really enjoyed the fact that almost the entire race we were right along the water. 

After the 5k, I met Molly at Tower 7 for some post-race fuel. Tower 7 is a restaurant near the beach, about a half mile from where my race took place so it worked out perfectly. Any place that serves chips and salsa before your meal is a winner in my book! I also enjoy this restaurant because they have a lot of cruelty free options for vegetarians/vegans.


I ended up getting a corn tostada with a pile of veggies on top! Though I'm still having a bit of trouble with my appetite lately, (I've been a little under the weather, fighting a cold etc), this was pretty good. 


Now I'm off to take a HOT shower and get warmed up for an evening with the pups. Gotta show them some extra lovin' before I leave for the week. 

Have a wonderful Sunday friends!
