8 miles

Lauren and I successfully completed 8 miles today. In under one hour and sixteen minutes, too! We ran Golden Gate Park and the Panhandle which is part of the course for our half marathon. I am very excited for the race after how great I felt today.

Post-run treats. Dynamo donut and cappuccino. Mmm.
