Monday: 30min legs
Ocean City, MD last Saturday. It was a beautiful day and a very random start to a weekend…
5th of July (but really the 4th since we had glowsticks and the fireworks were on the 5th)
Next day on the drive home I decided to stop in Annapolis to do a long run. Random fact: I almost always have running shoes & a sports bra in my car.. and after Sunday I will ALWAYS have a bag of running clothes in my car. Always.
When I travel, even overnight somewhere I try to have healthy snacks at hand so I wasn’t worried about fueling/recovery for the random run.
until the Garmin dies…
and until your legs can’t take anymore…
and when they can’t take anymore, keep a pair of compression socks in the car 😉

Haven’t stopped on a road trip to run YET… We are planning on driving across the country (again) in the near future (and avoiding the never-ending drive through Texas), and this will hopefully happen in some cool spots!

you’re running Europe!! You dont need a car right now. Running in new places is the best. I’m super jealous of you right now

I never have – but I ALWAYS run when I travel 🙂 Looks like a great weekend!

17 miles! Yay, awesome week 🙂 I’ve never stopped during a road trip to run somewhere unplanned but I do plan places I’d like to run in advance and pack my stuff so I don’t miss some cool new place.

Philly would be a good destination for us 😉

I’ve always wanted to just pull over during a road trip and go for a run but I’ve never done it! 4 runs this week?! Amazing! Good things are happening!

My chiro is SUPER pumped–my ankle looks awesome! Chicago here I come!

Sounds like you are always prepared! I have never done that but running in Annapolis sounds awesome! (I did a half there last Nov and loved the scenery!) Also a great way to break up the trip.

i wanted to do the half there last year, but had other races/commitments. I’m glad I got to experience it either way

Nice week! I’ve never even thought of keeping running stuff in my car – what a great idea!

Very interesting. I’ve never stopped on a road trip to run but that is a great idea. I also need to start keeping running equipment in my car….just in case 🙂

I’ve always wanted to stop and run. This weekend I decided to on a whim, best decision ever. I highly recommend, as long as there’s a shower somewhere soon after 😉
