The ceremony was at the church I grew up in, so it was really great to be back <3 I went to Catholic school at this church from 1st through 8th grade, so this place gives me a warm fuzzy nostalgic feeling. We had a little bit of time between the ceremony and reception so we stopped at my mom’s for a snack. One quesadilla and a powdered donut later we were off to our next stop! The reception was held at Union station in Los Angeles. I took pleasure in a vodka cranberry to kick off the night Ben took pleasure in scotch straight up. and then I sang, “I love scotch, scotch, scotch, down in my belly…” I don’t think he found it as amusing as I did. I was able to convince him to smile great for the cam before my scotch song encore. Then we hit up the photo-booth. We cut our pictures and left a message in their memory book. We were seated at the Pico Boulevard table. ‘Cause I’m from Pico yo. I asked Susan if I could take the table name home and she said she placed me there so I could. I kinda want to frame it Dinner started with salad and sweet corn bread. This bread tasted like cake and was a lot a lot more moist than the dry WF version. There was a candy bar I hit up at some point too… Susan and Rondell are big fans of BBQ ribs so they had their favorite place cater the wedding. Each plate came with a rib, chicken and fantastic mac n’ cheese. Seriously, the best mac n’ cheese I’ve ever had.I donated the rib to Ben and he said it was pretty life changing too. Luckily, the bride and groom came around to greet and take pictures with us ideal when I was trying to get BBQ sauce off my chin and chicken out of my teeth. Then, it was time for a toast! I cut myself off here because I made a decision to run a last minute half marathon the next morning and had a 4am wake up call! Sure running indicates you shouldn’t drink the night before a race, which isn’t ideal. But it also indicates you must carb load, which is my idea of a good time! They had cupcakes from an fantastic bakery in LA (starts with an “M”?) and the cupcake waitress said they ran out of their signature flavor. Luckily, nothing can come between me and dessert and I managed to finagle a few for the whole table from the DJ. Don’t ask We also tried the Red Velvet I convinced a table mate to eat 2 of them “oreo style” Challenge accepted. Is it sad I like binge cupcake eating to binge drinking? हुनसक्छ। Before the clock struck midnight Ben and I rushed off home. We live about 50 miles north of LA so it’s normally a rough drive, but there was zero traffic and we got home fairly quick. This morning I woke up at 4:30am to run the mission Inn half Marathon. I had planned on running this race for a while, but ended up not pre-registering when I realized the date of Susan’s wedding. But, Bobbi said she was running it for fun and I made a decision I’ll be dead before I know it, so I must do it too. Bobbi, Suzi and I all kept saying we are doing this race for fun only! None of us have been running or training lately so it was a deal. I absolutely felt worn out and nearly out of shape for this race. Suzi went out faster than I wanted, but I didn’t want to be slow everyone down so I just went with it. This course was very short though – I crossed the finish at 12.24 miles (accidently bumped the start again later). So, I can’t really compare this to my other half marathon times. Average pace was 8:48 – I’ll take it! It was a hard race, but I’m so delighted I did it. I don’t run with pals enough! Bobbi and I stayed together the whole race! And I saw my little incredibly fast pal Pam! She placed 2rd in her division!!! On a sidenote: I absolutely want to explore this area soon! It looked incredibly cute. I don’t have a ‘race report’ from the mission Inn half because I really just did it for fun. My thoughts on the race: It was organized very well for registration and packet pick up. The volunteers at the water stations were very position and encouraging. This really made a difference considering that there were no other spectators! Cotton shirt, not a fan. The course was very SHORT. The course was also flat It need to have been the lack of sleep and 10 miler yesterday, but I felt very worn out and out of shape. I wanted to go out to eat after the race (hello, eating is the reason I run!), but Ben already ate so I went homeसट्टा। I knew I wanted pancakes and eggs – but I don’t usually cook 2 things for breakfast. considering that this was a special day I made an exception. I used boxed pancake mix to make it faster and added extra cheese to the eggs. Both those changes really made this meal delicious!
