Jason was doing the Run the River Half Marathon this morning in Edmonton.
He had signed Freya up for the kids run as well but when we got up she was tired and she was cold so she opted not to do it.
So we dropped Jason off at the run then we found a spot nearby to have some breakfast (Tutti Frutti).
I had yogurt, strawberries and granola, an egg and some bacon.
Freya had a Nutella and banana crepe, bacon, eggs and fruit.
She ate all of it and had a slice of my bacon as well.
Guess she was hungry.
I wanted to go cheer Jason on but it was pretty cold out so we popped into Winners to get hoodies.
Freya picked out a whole outfit.
We went over and parked at a spot that I thought we'd see Jason run by but then I did the time calculations and figured he'd likely already been by there.
We jumped back in the car and headed over to the finish line thinking we could catch him there but right before we parked, he texted me to say he was done.
I felt so bad that we'd missed him - I really wanted to be there to cheer him and for Freya to experience it all.
We found him down by the finish line.
He said he was feeling pretty good after the run, he'd had a very good run.
He finished it in 1 hour, 45 minutes which I thought was awesome.
His 'medal' was actually made of wood but still cool and another to add to the collection.
He was hungry so we went over to the Rosewood cafe.
He got a breakfast burrito - their hashbrowns are so good.
I got Freya a slice of chocolate cake and I got a slice of orange olive oil cake.
I tried both - they were dense, moist cakes which I really liked.
Freya really wanted to go swimming so we ended up taking her to Millennium Place in Sherwood Park and we swam all afternoon.
Jason got to spend some time in the sauna and the hot tub.
That is such a great place - if I lived there, I'd totally buy a membership.
Selfies in the car on the way home.
She just loves these crop top/bra things - she picked a set out at Winners earlier and would just wear this alone outside if I let her.
It was around 8 when we got home and Kody was there visiting with Eden.
Freya had been saying she wanted to go home but then when it came time to go, she ended up changing her mind and staying instead which is fine with us.
Jason is off tomorrow so he can take her to school.
I still needed to get a few more steps in so I had to go down and get on the treadmill.
It was the last thing I wanted to do at 9:30 at night but I did it anyway.
It took me about a half hour to get the rest of my steps in that I needed.
Proud of myself for doing it even when I didn't want to.
I have not missed one single day this year of getting my 12,000 daily steps.
Freya came down and worked out a little while I was on the treadmill.
I really hope we show her by example how healthy it is to stay active.
She got these new jeans today too - they are super cute on her.
That's all for today, until next time, be happy!
