Ella, Annie, Arya, Camilla, and I decided we would meet at 3:30 today to go on a run since we didn't have a scheduled practice. Annie and I wanted to get dinner afterwards in honor of Arya's birthday, but we decided it would be too early to get dinner and we should just get frozen yogurt. Benji and Corbin, who were in close proximity to this conversation asked if they could come too. They told us that they just had to stop at Arjun's house first in order for Arjun to get dressed. We went into the locker room to get changed when we found Sophie who decided to come on the run with us too. We went upstairs when Ethan Wolin and Daniel Goldblatt were also coming on the run with us. So we went off to Arjun's house. We ran there, waited for him to get changed with 10 of us waiting on his porch.
After Arjun was done getting changed we started our run, I'm not sure where we were at all. But Ella and Corbin seemed to know. So with them leading, we were confident they were going to have a good run. That is until we decided we wanted to do the Gieco loop. Corbin had convinced us that he knew exactly where he was going which, looking back on, was not very accurate. Every few blocks Ella would explain how we were definitely not going the way we were supposed to go. About 10 minutes in Ella was quite mad we hadn't listened to her the first time we took a wrong turn, but it was an adventure so we kept going. Around this moment is when Daniel split off to go back to school. At a certain point in the run, none of us really knew where we were so Corbin enthusiastically asked a dad walking with his probably 7 or 8-year-old daughter if he had a phone. Corbin then looked up where we were and we were able to continue running. We were heading straight to Booymonger. Once we got there we all got some yogurt and sang to Arya. I asked Arya for a bite of her yogurt and she said yes so I took a bite, but she hadn't told me until after I had the bite that she had just gotten over strep. So after a few anxious moments that I ran around trying to figure out what to do, I came to the conclusion to drink a bunch of water for some reason. I did that and came back to the group where Ethan Wolin told me that strep is only contagious for the first two days that Arya had it. Since Arya got it over a week ago I hope that I will be okay. After that, we went back to school and stretched in the weight room. I don't know the mileage but we ran for about 25 minutes.
