Featured Fit: A "70th" Birthday Party!

By Cool J in Minneapolis

Last night was a 70th birthday party to remember! To be honest, no one was actually turning 70. 
It was actually a combined 30th and a 40th birthday party. 
30 + 40 = 70!

We had a private room at Gluek's downtown for the party. 
There was cake, a slideshow, 70s & 80s trivia,  and even a poetry reading :)

My primary contribution for the party planning was the retro candy table.


I had a lot of fun putting together the candy table. A little too much fun!


Unfortunately, I probably went a little overboard, and we have a LOT of leftover candy. 
If you invite me over, I guarantee I'll be bringing candy!


We had a great turnout to help celebrate such monumental birthdays. 
Thanks to everyone who attended, and happy birthday Andrew and Kelly!



***Side note: Quite a few of the party attendees had run 20-22 miles earlier that morning, so we were happy to have made it past midnight at the party! I'm sure there will be lots of rest and recovery happening today for these dedicated people!

 It was our longest run of the training season, and now it's time for the glorious taper.


I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! Did you have a long run yesterday? How far?
