Running
This morning started off with running - yep, I'm still training for my upcoming 1/2 marathon. I met up with my
Team Challenge "teammates" on the Capital Crescent Trail in Bethesda, MD at 8am. It was a cool 50 degrees, dry, and overcast. Our goal was to run for 1 hour and 40 minutes. During the run I maintained a comfortable pace and ran approximately 11.5 miles. It was a good workout.

Tennis
Once I arrived home from the run, Henry came over and the three of us - Brian, Henry, and me - headed out to the nearby tennis courts to hit some balls. We played a few games, rotating teams, and we kept playing until each of us won a set. There were also a few times when each of us hit a ball way off of the court. We each had our own excuses for poor aim and lack of ball control: Henry had a big blister on his foot, Brian couldn't see because of the sun, and I was tired from running earlier in the morning. (Personally, I think I had the best excuse).

Walking
Later in the afternoon, Brian and I took Tahoe and Ashley out for a walk around the lake. With the cooler temps, the leaves are starting to fall and change colors. It was bright and sunny out - a nice afternoon to be outside with my husband and two favorite pooches.
