Happy Anniversary, Jilane!

AM: 54 mins.
7.5 miles
30 mins. ellip.

So today was a banner day for me for several reasons. First of all, I ran 54 minutes. I'll pause for a moment and allow you to fully absorb that. Yup, 54 minutes, and I actually didn't feel terrible.

More importantly, today marks the one-year anniversary of the night that Jilane and I met. Or, as she would describe it, the night that Jordan invited her to come out and have a drink with him and the Brooks rep, only to discover upon arrival that he was sitting alarmingly close to a stunningly attractive blond. I'm pretty sure that's how she would recount the scenario. Nonetheless, though neither of u
s knew it at the time, that night was the beginning of an amazing friendship. Jilane is one of my besties and I'm so thankful for her.

Believe it or not, that's nearly word for word how I describe our first meeting. Annnnd I wouldn't change a thing about it, because what a glorious story it is.
