Yesterday my Business Man and I got a little bored in the Bean Town and decided to get outta town for the day.
We'd been eyeing a bar-height table for two at ikea.com for our little baking nook, so decided to head down to IKEA in Cincinnati. Unfortunately, the table was not in stock. :(
We still got the two chairs to go with it though! Hopefully it will be in stock soon and we can actually purchase it.
I also got a super-sweet poster print for my classroom. Geek much?
After our long and exhausting one hour of shopping we were obviously famished and had to re-fuel with some straight sugar, by sharing a cinnamon roll and a Diet Pepsi.
We then moved to the next destination of the day.
We've always just driven by these outlets on I-75 and finally decided to stop. I just love outlet malls! I got some really good deals on some summer tops from Banana Republic Outlet... my fav!
Then, onto the final destination: the Cheesecake Factory. Probably one of my most favorite restaurants in the world. Whenever we eat here, we try to come late afternoon, between 3 and 4pm. We never have to wait, and we don't feel so crowded/rushed.
We started with the bread. Oh the wonderful bread.
Then we deliberated the menus. After a good 15 minutes, we both decided on our usuals.
Bang bang chicken & shrimp for my Business Man.
BBQ Chicken Pizza & salad for me.
It was delicious. Once we got home, I told my Business Man that I wasn't allowed to order pizza next time. I love it, but there's over 100 things on the menu! I'm sure there's other things I would love, too, I just need to step out of the box.
Sadly, no cheesecake for us yesterday. We were too full.
When we got home I got started on a little project for the bakery nook. You'll just have to wait and see!

Weekly Rundown
Now that I've started "training" for my two halves this fall, I figured each Sunday I would wrap up my week of training.
Goals: 40 miles total; 9-10 mile long run; 4-mile tempo
Monday: 6.3 miles easy
Tuesday: 4.5 mile tempo run (31:07, 6:54-avg); 7.8 miles total with warm-up & cool-down
Wednesday: 6.8 miles easy
Thursday: 5.5 miles easy
Friday: 8x400m @ 5k-pace (98, 96, 97, 96, 97, 95, 95, 93) w/ 400m jog; 6.5 miles total with warm-up & cool-down'
Saturday: 8 mile "long run"
Sunday: Off
Total Miles: 40.9 miles
My long run wasn't as long as I hoped, but the humidity has killed me this week! Three of the six runs were on the treadmill, hence the two speed work-outs. Going easy on the treadmill is so boring! Gotta spice it up with intervals. Next week I'll get in a 10-mile long run!
Next week's goals: 45 miles total; 4-mile tempo; 10-mile long run

| Yes, I had a wardrobe change. I was so excited about one of my new shirts from Banana that I changed in the car. No shame. |
