SPRING BREAKIN'

Last week was Spring Break for my kids.
It came at the perfect time, during week two of my Boston taper.

We went on vacation and it was fantastic.
I only ran once the entire week. That is bad, but my foot has been hurting and I figured my "hay was in the barn" training wise.

Me and the two older kids finished our 4 checkout dives required to become certified divers.
In total we dived 6 times. It was a huge two thumbs up.
I already want to go diving again asap.
From now on, please refer to me as Ms. Certified Diver :)

We got home Sunday night and I have spent the past few days doing laundry, running a few slow and easy miles, working, and making lists.

Avery and I are leaving Saturday morning for BOSTON!
It's that time of year again. Patriots Day- Marathon Monday- one of my favorite days of the year!
My twin is meeting us up there. She has never been to Boston so I am really excited to show her around and try to convince her it would be awesome for her to qualify to run Boston too. Then we can go together!


I just had my pre race pedicure. I picked a nice blood red color for the toes.
The feet look good today, but I predict the toes will be a mess come Monday night :)

So, now I request that you guys track me on Monday. I need all the positive vibes as possible sent my way.
I mean I am trying to re-qualify so help a sista out with some happy thoughts or prayers if that is your thing..

Go to www.baa.org and track runner 14417.
Hopefully that is the runner that is hauling ass the entire way (ME!)
