I did my long run on a windy, wavy day down on the Lakefront Trail. I ran to Navy Pier and back. At about mile 13 of 16, I spotted Gingerfoxxx and her running group up ahead of me. As I neared her group, I took out my camera and said, "Gingerfoxxx" and she said turned around and said "hi." Instead of us both slowing down to take a picture of this meeting of two Chicago Running Bloggers, I did a self portrait of us while we were still running:

Anyway, the waves were really crashing on the Lakefront Trail this morning, almost taking out some runners:
The kids (and adults) were having fun in the surf!

| The lake waves were so big that you may have mistaken parts of it for an ocean! |
 |
| This dog looked like he really wanted to play in the surf too! |

So I am finished with 2 of my 3 long runs! Total was 16 miles @ 8:13/mile
What a fun run in with Sara!!! So cool when you randomly see someone you know on a run! :)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness! Those waves!!!
How fun! I am envious! Still under the weather so haven't got my long run in this week!
ReplyDeleteI was driving up LSD on Saturday afternoon ... those waves were crazy! Would have been fun to play around in them.
ReplyDeleteGreat to run (get it, RUN??) into you!! I was watching those kids play in the waves and it made me SO NERVOUS! I would never let my kids in water that choppy.
