Broke from the move and there is food at home!
So for this week’s long run to brunch I did an 18mi loop to my own kitchen for some homemade bagel breakfast sandwiches 🥯

Running to try more of what the Seattle breakfast scene has to offer.

Today’s long run was for a vegetarian Breakky at📍Cafe Flora
While this spot was stunning with a lovely atmosphere, it definitely felt a bit overhyped. Solid breakfast but lacked the flavor. Also my potatoes gave Dennys 🥲
