Krispy Kreme!
We hadn't had Krispy Kreme in months. That all changed Saturday when I ran the Krispy Kreme Challenge! I ran with Anna and one of her friends. It was 37 degrees and raining. Yet, we still ran 4.77 miles and ate a few donuts. I am incredibly sore today, but it was actually really fun... I might even do it again! Running with 7,499 other people is something to experience for sure!

Jingle Bells
It wasn't a very exciting week here. J passed 2 of the 3 tests he took. Considering he was sick, that is pretty good! I had a busy week with 2 back-to-back meetings Thursday on opposite ends of the county. And the main road I take was closed due to railroad construction.
Saturday was the Jingle Bell run. I jingled the whole way. I ran the entire time, too! I was towards the back of the group, but I finished in 33:30, which is 2.5 min faster than last time! After the race, we did a little shopping and ate at Red Robin. And on the way home, it snowed! It stuck more in Raleigh than it did here.
Today, I signed up for the Krispy Kreme Challenge, but just as a casual runner. Woo hoo!
Tomorrow night, J is in the Erwin parade. 20 days until Christmas!
Now I leave you with a couple of pictures:
This is what we did since we don't have outside electrical outlets. It is hard to tell, but we have some gold strands with leaves and berries worked in with the garland.

Monster Dash
Not much news... and no pictures :(
But we did do our first 5K today! We didn't think of any good costume ideas, so we just went as runners. ;) We finished in a little over 36 minutes! That was faster than I ran it on the treadmill last week. And this was uphill (1/2 of it anyway!) J finished a little before me since he sprinted at the end. But we are both proud of ourselves for doing it! I want to do another... J not so much. :) I think Anna and I might run one in December. We'll see.
We had tons of trick or treaters tonight! Since my mom (and maybe me..) had eaten some of the candy, we ran out QUICK! J ran to the store to get more (2 bags) and we still ran out before it was over! Next year... more candy!
Short and sweet this week. Maybe I'll update more later this week. Pumpkin pie is calling my name.
