I met up with friends for our last long run before North Fork next weekend!  We logged a lot of hours in the woods together and I’m so thankful for their company!!!

I was craving a smoothie after the run.  What do you do when you can’t make up your mind?  Order two smalls…the best of both worlds!

I had a super fun mail day!  Batch knows my love for coffee and sent me some fun new coffees to try!!!!  They also gave me a discount to share with JCJ readers!  Use code: CHOOSEJOY for 10% off your order at BatchUSA.com.  Thanks Batch!!!

Sunday: Father’s Day and the Summer Solstice

Happy Father’s Day to both of my dads!!

It was also the first day of Summer and the longest day of the year!

I hopped on the treadmill for 9 recovery paced miles.

In an empty gym!!!

I met Jason for an early breakfast…

and a hike around Radnor Lake.

My friend Dave is out of town.  He’s letting me pick his garden while he’s gone.  This was my first time getting to do it and I’m hooked!!!!  I can’t wait to plant my own garden next year.

Isn’t it beautiful?!!!

Jason and I had dinner on the Burger Up patio!  It’s hot as hades in TN and I love it!

I had a big salad, because…CAKE!!

Sending prayers and love to Charleston.

Are you a summer lover?  I love the heat and sunshine (except when I’m running)!

Did you do anything special for Father’s Day?

Did you race or long run?  Share!

Do you have a garden?  What are you growing?
