There’s nothing better than coffee after a run. I always give up coffee for 2 weeks before a marathon, and it’s the first thing I want when I’m finished.
Kristin
Mmmm, I bet you really enjoy it after 2 weeks off!!! Coffee is my life!!! 🙂 🙂
Thanks so much for your comment!!

That looks pretty incredible to me (the times) … and that you can hold it pretty constant is also wow to me too. And then to have coffee time … mmmmmmm 🙂
Way to go you!
Kristin
Awe, thank you!!! You are so kind!!
Haha, yes, coffee time is always very crucial after run time because I’m usually very tired and need a quick pick me up! 🙂
