Hey guys! If you celebrated, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. My family and I celebrated on Christmas eve, and it was so fun to have all my brothers and their families at my parent’s house.
On Christmas eve, I got woke a lot later than I had planned so I didn’t go run until about 2. I, of course, had to eat something before I left for my run so I did that.

After my run I got ready for mass. My brother Adrian, his wife, 3 of my nieces, and I all went to the early Christmas mass. We arrived there about 30 minutes early, and it was already packed. After mass, we went back to my parent’s house to eat dinner. My mom made tamales, beans, chicken enchiladas, nachos, and bought some ice cream pies for dessert. It was all soo good. I definitely had a food baby going on.;)

Brother and I after dinner. Love him. He will be running a half marathon in April with me!:)
After dinner, we opened presents. I always love watching the kids open their gifts. They get so excited! I was really excited to give my brothers their present from my mom. We got them matching Nike sweatshirts that I was super excited about.
We match! Kinda:)
I don’t know why they weren’t as excited as I was about us matching. I brought up the great idea that we should all run a race together wearing matching outfits. They didn’t really think it was that cool. Weirdos.
I’ve been trying to increase my mileage before I officially start training for the half marathon in April. I wont start until the end of January, so I still have some time. Today I went on the treadmill at the gym and ran 7 awesome miles. It’s amazing what two cups of coffee can do for a run.
I was pretty pleased with my time.
How was your Christmas (if you celebrated)?
Treadmill runs or outside runs?
