Sunny Sunday

Ahhhh; it's a beautiful, sunny day in Swansea!  I am munching on carrots and a baguette for lunch and enjoying the sun streaming through my open window.  I "slept in" this morning, which meant that I was awake and making breakfast around 9:30.  I decided to go for a run since it was nice out, and I was actually a bit warm in my leggings, shorts, t-shirt, windbreaker, and ISU headband.  I decided to head towards the City Centre but stayed on the path along the coast.  It was gorgeous, and I got to see a part of Swansea that was new to me.  When I turned back after going as far as the path allowed, I decided to run for a bit on the sand. The tide was in, and there were so many people walking on the beach and enjoying the day.  I even saw someone with a kite, which really made me want to buy one!  It was great to run right alongside the water.  I headed back towards the Student Village, and out of nowhere it started to rain on me!  It lasted for most of my run upwards toward Hendrefoelan, so I was glad I had my windbreaker on to protect my iPod.  I got back to my flat and checked the distance of my trip.  I accidentally ran over 8 miles!  I guess that's a good sign for the half-marathon I'm running in Liverpool at the end of March.  Right now, I'm enjoying texting Laura as she is on her way to a Faith Sound performance.  This evening, I am going to my friend Stephanie's house for dinner, and I've been invited to an Oscar party (which is really late at night here!).  I may take a nap before I go so I'm ready for the one class I have tomorrow!  I hope your Sunday is as relaxed and enjoyable as mine :)
