Run for the Roses!

I just got home from one of my favorite girl's weekend/running trips in Louisville, Kentucky. This weekend was the Kentucky Derby Festival which was a huge party to kick off this week's big racing event. Everything about the trip was great from dinner at Hard Rock, a night at the race track and a visit to the Louisville Slugger museum. The race itself was amazing! Perfect weather, a best run for me (even though the last 6 hilly miles were brutal,) but the absolute BEST was running IN Churchill Downs and looking to my right and seeing the horses practicing on the track RIGHT NEXT TO US--TOTAL SUPRISE! I had such a wonderful time with my two sweet friends and hope to continue the tradition again someday (not too soon!) ;)
