Weight Lifting class this morning. Wow- the weights feel heavy after taking a week or so off! And I'm so TIRED after the class. BUT I did it ! And I feel GREAT about that! Now tomorrow Heather's trying to drag me on a 14 miler (she's training for a 50K!) So I guess I'll do a longish run tomorrow, just listen to the body and see how far I feel like going.

Just got back from vacation so its time to plan another! (hee hee...) I admit it, I'm a vacation addict, a junkie! Just booked a flight to FL for this summer. My in laws live down there and that's where I'm from so there's lots of family to see and its easy to rationalize. Just gotta try to keep the Easter candy away so I can be beach ready for June! (Only had the money for the flight now, so I guess we'll be sleeping on the street and walking to all our destinations...)

Weight lifting classes are awesome! Good luck on your 14 miler. I have the same miles planned for Saturday.

Vacations are so worth the money and effort! Our family believes in family and just mom and dad vacations big time!

Thanks Kim! I'll need all the luck I can get for tomorrow's run. Glad you agree on the vacations too, sometimes I feel guilty 'cause we should spend the $ on landscaping, but we are all about vacations!

Hey, your ready for the 14, no pre-blogging needed. You gotta love Florida, me and Sylvie have done the Disney World marathon twice over the last few years. Have fun running in the warm weather. I am jealous.

Hey Christi, sounds like things are going great! Where did you guys get to go for a vacation? I'm so jealous!!! I think I'm a litttle over due in that department!!! Good luck on the run tomorrow! I'm anxious to get back at it... all this beautiful (45-50 degree's) weather and not being able to run is killing me!!!

From Christi on Tue, Mar 18, 2008 at 22:00:07

Ah Brent- I want to do the Disney marathon (or 1/2) it looks so fun. I grew up 2 hrs. from Disney World in FL so we went often and its in my blood!

Michelle- We took the kids to CA over their Spring Break (last week) 2 days on Huntington Bch and 2 days in Disneyland. Great time! Too short! I hope your hip gets feeling better soon so you can enjoy some runs in the Spring weather! (maybe you can get some good walks in- in the meantime?)
