Where I've been lately....

This post is just a mash up of some thoughts running through my head, what I have been doing, and my need to blog!  Sometimes all I want to do is blog but when it comes time to actually blog, there isn't time.  The act of turning on a computer os daunting!  I try to be in bed around 8:30 and hope to be asleep around 9.  I am cool, I know!

1. So for the last 3 months I have been training for this silly thing called the New York Marathon as most of you already know.  This month although has really put a damper on my miles.  My body is revolting!  Runners knee, plantar faciatiis, this weird pain in my back.  I am a mess!!SInce July, each month of training has decreased in miles and it is supposed to be increasing..It makes me sad but oh well.  That is all I can say I think.

2. I love reading your blogs!  Its a few minutes of peace and quiet I get during the day.  I am sorry if I haven't been leaving comment but I promise I have been reading your posts!

3. I had such a blast at the summer of rum festival back in August!  Behn and I met up with a bunch of our friends and everyone had a blast!  Can we do this every year?  It did get very crowded towards the end and I was ready to leave at that point.

4. I really, really, really, love my one hour (45+ mile) drive to and from work every day..NOT

5. My injured body is already planning for future races but I hope this body heals itself.

6. I went on my bike last for the first time in probably 10 months.  I did 18 miles.  It was great! I crave more, minus the butt pain.  I need to find a bath to ride on because I am terrified to ride next to the cars.

7. I love food..DUH

8. I am sure you are really getting sick of this post now so I will see if I can find some pictures to share with you.

9. Compression socks rock! I love you Pro compression.

10.  I may already be counting down to spring break.

11. I have been gluten and dairy free since Sept. 1 hoping it helps my belly.  I had a slip up this past weekend..WHOOPS!






What have you been up to lately?  Catch me up on your life!

What is your favorite dairy free dessert? I love dessert!
