We got out early yesterday for a long run, which turned into a of a bit of a longer run than we expected. Not much longer, but longer. Kristie and I were planning on doing our regular 10 KM run which brings us from Kate Mansfield Park to the point along Oriental Parade, but Kristie wanted to run a bit further to get to a clean bathroom. So we ended up running about 11.6 KM in total. Like I said, it was a bit longer, but not much longer.
After the run, we came home and went for a quick nap immediately upon arriving at home as we had a schedule Skype call with a couple friends back in Edmonton.
After the run, we took the dogs for a walk in Ngaio Gorge, a favorite of the pups, and then home for dinner and videos.
It was an absolutely wonderful day!
Today, we deferred the morning run in favour of an evening run tonight. Like I said at the beginning of this post, the weather this today was fantastic! So we packed up the dogs, and had a quicky breakfast of coffee and egg muffin on the waterfront. From there, we took a nice, long, and picturesque drive around Shelly Bay, which is an area of Wellington that we hardly ever get to. As a matter of fact, Kristie had never been that way yet. We stopped at a few place to take some photos, and took the dogs for a walk along one of the beaches on the Miramar Peninsula. They met a gorgeous little Scottie named Lilly there, and had a bit of fun hanging out with her.
We then finished up the drive by touring around the bays until we reached Brooklyn and then back into the city.
The run that we've deferred until this evening is all up hill! Ok, not really all up hill, but it is all up hill until we hit the turn around mark! We're both a bit nervous about this run, but are anxious to test our fitness level.
