Well, I'm no longer sore from the 1/2 marathon last weekend. The trail run with the "Chicks" didn't help me any!! They didn't go very easy on me, more importantly I was able to keep up. So speaking of chicks, Dianna had written about the balance, of running, the ying and yang, etc. Well, this week I've had my own balance. Eat a box of York Peppermint Patty cookies- run 4.73 miles on the trail. For every active action, I've had an equal and opposite action of indulgence. It seems to have begun with the impending arrival of my husband from Iraq. He is due to be home for a 15 day RnR sometime after the 8th of June. I've been focusing so much on getting back to fitness and a figure for his visit that I'm dwelling on food and not just food the worst of food- McDonalds, cookies, icecream!!!
Maybe, I should not focus so much on how I look when he gets home and focus on the fact that he is coming home and probably won't care how I look but that everyone is safe and sound and together!
One week to go!!! Happy Friday and good luck to those racing this weekend- it's supposed to finally be nice weather up here in New England!
