Just wanted to pop in for a quick “Hello”! I got into Portland, Maine late last night and this morning woke up to this gorgeous scene!

Here are some other pics from the day…

Aaaand the #3, 4 & 5 highlight of my life…

Meeting Ryan Hall, Deena Kastor and Meb!

That photo is from a Press Herald article about us girls gushing over Ryan Hall. Ha!

I asked Meb what he’s eating tonight before Beach to Beacon 10k and he said, “Pasta! Of course!”

Question: Meb’s having pasta – What are you eating tonight?

    I love Maine my father lives up north, or is it down south. Maine geography can be kind of confusing. He live on the on the Schoodic peninsula. It is so beautiful

    I’m so glad you’re enjoying your New England visit! The seafood in Portland is great — if I were there right now, I’d sure be having a whole lot of that for dinner!

    You must have been staying at Higgins Beach! The beach is a perfect little Maine getaway, one of my favorite places. The Good Table has an amazing breakfast. If you have free time Portland has a neat walking food tour. Enjoy your visit.

    Meb is one of the NICEST people ever! Anytime I’ve been lucky enough to see him running while also running in SD, he never seems creeped out at my incessant waving 🙂

      She was super super nice! And she had the worst day of travel the night before which would normally make someone a little irritated, but she was super chill.

    I’m hoping I can convince my husband to get pizza. I could use something carby and cheesy.

    ahhhhh, so jealous! My parents live in North Yarmouth, and I’ve heard all about the Beach to Beacon. I think it’s the most popular race that Maine has, anyway, I’d love to run it some year. Can’t wait to read your after race report!!!! have a wonderful run!
