Veteran's Day!

Well I've been working on the East coast this week, so my workouts have consisted of running. Yesterday I actually logged 4 miles on a treadmill, because I'm in Boston and it's chilly out here!!! Oh my goodness...it has literally been years since I've run on a treadmill. I used to run on a treadmill everyday, but a few years ago, I started running outside... Needless to say, it was very weird to be running on a treadmill, but I did get to watch Ellen and The View.

Well, today I was determined to make is outside for my run. Luckily the woman at the front desk of my hotel recommended a nice cemetery near our hotel for my run. I love cemeteries! I know that's kinda creepy and maybe it's because I was raised right next to one (it was our playgroud!), but I really, really enjoy walking through cemeteries. Well, the one out here was very cool! All the fall leaves were vibrant colors and the wind was blowing them all over the place. On top of the beautiful fall colors, the cemetery was peppered with American flags because it is Veterans Day. It was truly the perfect day to run in a cemetery! Here's my top five list from my run (in no particular order):
1. Favorite tombstone: Higgenbottom - reminds me of a name I'd see in a Harry Potter book
2. The marine in uniform visiting his friend's grave
3. The sun lighting up the beautiful stained glass in the mausoleums
4. The skunk smell...I don't ever smell that in LA
5. The amazing fall leaves blowing all over the place and sticking to my shoes.

I get to head home tomorrow. Yippee! Hopefully I'll be able to resume my training schedule.
