Back from the Beach

Well, I am back from paradise!


The weather was perfect. Sunny, breezy days....gentle waves...fruity drinks.....sigh. I want to go back.



To make matters worse, I came back with a nasty cold. 2011 has definitely been the year of sickness for me. As someone who (used to) never get sick, this has been a horrible turn of events. I feel like Gwenyth Paltrow's character in Contagion.

I only ran twice while I was in WPB, which is better than nothing I suppose. I hopped on the treadmill after not touching one for about a year....and forgot how easy it is to run!! I mean good Lord, I felt like I could run for hours on that thing compared to running outside. Can I switch my half marathon to the treadmill instead? :P

I am really, really, really hoping this cold goes away by tomorrow. I am at the trail end of my training (one month till the race!) and I can't afford to miss any runs due to being sick. Please send out get well vibes for me! :(

Looks beautiful! No worries, a month is plenty of time to recover. Some guy at the gym told me he ran a 24 hour treadmill race, you could look into that.
