Nike Women's Half Marathon Post Run Shenanigans at the San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Fun fact about the San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts: it's where the "Come, permit us dance like children of the night!" scene from Then I Married an Axe Murderer (one of my favorite SF movies of all fourth dimension) takes place.
The city was packed for the Nike Women'south Half Marathon yesterday, and then El Hub, who was my one-man cheering section/ride home, concluded up parking at the palace about five blocks abroad from the finish line at the Marina Green, which is this large park right side by side to the water where people often picnic and play on sunny days.
On the style back to the automobile, I really wanted to prance, bound and twirl through the palace's central antechamber like Mike Myers does in the movie, but my body had other plans. Later on running 13.1 miles, my legs were like, "Oh, hell no, hookah!" The best I could manage was an enthusiastic hobble. 🙂
I did take a few snapshots of the palace though. It was besides cute to resist.
It's one of my favorite places in all of San Francisco. I dear the columns and the prehistoric-looking plants and the petty trail around the pond. It's a great place for pics, if you ever make it out this way. Sometimes I'll see bridal parties at that place with professional videographers and photographers snapping pics.
Earlier I forget, the race was a blast! I of the near enjoyable runs I've ever done, despite my now aching legs and dorsum.
The hills on the road were difficult for me, not gonna prevarication, particularly the ones near the beginning before I'd really warmed up, but the form was breathtaking and pretty, and I got to run through some of my favorite San Francisco neighborhoods.
Different the only other half marathon I've run, which was about a decade agone, I felt stronger and more focused this time. I didn't feel like crying at any bespeak, and nothing was chafed when I crossed the terminate line with my NARS lipstick and Cle de Peau mascara still intact, huzzah!
Seriously, despite my aches and pains today (I'll exist doing an epsom table salt bath tonight), this 39-year-old true cat lady felt like she crushed it, which fabricated opening the little blue Tiffany box they gave each of the competitors at the stop line that much sweeter. 🙂
Cheers, Team Neutrogena, for talking me into doing the race!
