Fisherman's 5k - St. Peter's Church - Point Pleasant Beach

Today was my first 5k of the year.  It was a chilly 27 degrees when I got up this morning, but I went & had a fun time with my friends Adele & Andrew.  I think this may be the start of a monthly 5k race with them, we had a great time & some laughs & Adele even got 1st place in her age group.  I won't tell you her age, but she's only been running for a year so congratulations!

Afterwards I rewarded myself with a tasty orange mango smoothie from Starbucks.  Yep, you read that right Starbucks makes smoothies now.  More reason to go twice a day!  & they only have 250 calories in them, so I felt that it was ok to have one after the race.

In other food related news Trader Joe's opened around the corner & I went there to stock up on some tasty treats.  I always marvel at how low their prices are & I was happy to get fruit & veggies at really low prices.  Even though they were serving chicken mango sausage on a Friday during Lent (sorry God I forgot) I will definitely be back for samples soon!

Maybe I made up for it today by going to the 5k at St. Peter's.  Hey....maybe it also counts as going to church too, as the priest gave us all a blessing before we started!  Sweet!
