June 15th, Friday

I got to Chicago late Thursday night (I didn't run in the morning as I was a little under the weather after the party), got a good night sleep and went for a great run along Lake Shore Drive & Lake Michigan.

It was a little muggy that day but not bad.  I ran 10.22 miles in 1:33:59 for a pace of 9:12/mile.  The nice part about the Midwest is it is very flat!!!!  I wanted to get a good run in, so I could take the rest of the weekend off & I think it worked.  I went as far north as the "Theater on the Lake" and went south past Navy Pier and out to the end of it as well.

We made it to 2 Cubs games (the Boston Red Sox were in town) and sat in the bleachers (the ONLY place to sit at a Cubs game in my opinion!) Cubs won on Friday and lost on Sat.

 That was a great day!  I could go on & on about our trip to Chicago but I will spare you the rest.  The last thing I will say is that we stayed right across the street from the John Hancock building & here is a pic of it going up into the clouds which I thought was pretty cool.

 

Total Miles:  963.26  Pace Runner:  918.04  +  45.22 miles

Love to my wonderful folks!  <3
