Weekend Update

we had a fun weekend. it was amit's birthday on saturday. friday night amit and i went out on a date to kick off his birthday weekend. we had dinner at The Basin in los gatos. we shared a bottle of wine, and just enjoyed having some time together without the pressure of having to be somewhere or having something to do. it was nice.

saturday morning we had to be at the Sawyer Camp trail in san mateo by 7am. amit and the rest of the running team ran 6 miles, i ran 4 miles with them. i ran 2 miles, walked 1/2 a mile, then ran another 1.5 miles. i'm making decent progress - that was the longest i've been able to run without stopping so far, so it felt great. i'm trying to push myself a little harder each week, so this week's looking a bit daunting right now! by the way, the trail was gorgeous! here's a picture from the run. and....here's the link on Bay Area Hiker http://www.bahiker.com/southbayhikes/sawyercamp.html

in the afternoon i took amit to Watercourse Way in palo alto where we had reserved a private hot tub & sauna for an hour. he loved it! we got to spend an hour in the tub room, and after the long run in the morning, it felt great. we were so relaxed afterwards - as soon as we got home, we fell asleep.

that night we went to Antonio's Nut House with some friends to party it up. sunday was all about the superbowl - went to a party at Dumma & Leena's house. it was a really great weekend - somehow i felt like i was on vacation the whole the weekend. i'll post some pictures from amit's birthday and the superbowl party later this week.
