Just a friendly neighborhood jog...

4+ miles - We met near my house tonight for a jog around the neighborhood. 4 of us joined up and I met a new person that is training for her first Triathlon. Sam also joined us, we figured out we are neighbors (block and half away!) and should be running together more often. The longer I'm in Beaverdale the more cool people I meet. Love that! So we used my little fancy iphone app (another plug for the fact that it cost a mere $4.99... fabulous!) that tracked our mileage and we headed out in 80 degree weather. That's right 80 degrees in Iowa in March. We so earned that after this ridiculous winter! I also am getting excited for the first downtown DSM farmers market... May 1... mark your calendars. Mark 'em and look forward to fresh eats, veggies, flowers, happy people, dogs, strollers and general happy chaos... and the promise of sunshine. In celebration of the warming weather, I picked up some asparagus and cherry tomatoes and fresh garlic and broiled it in the oven for a bit. Garlic is the best smelling ever... unless it's on someone else's breath. Weird how that works, eh? :-)~
