I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. Mine started off great (see Friday's blog), but quickly went sour. It rained on our camping, so we came home a day early. I spilled a pot of boiling noodles all over the kitchen. And then I got a bad case of poison ivy, with a side of sun burn...

| Poison ivy everywhere above the waist! |
But always looking on the bright side of things...
• We did get to trial-run our new pop-up camper.
• The kiddos got to see their beloved Yogi Bear...
• I got a bunch of yard work done.
• We had a nice cookout with friends (and I held my limit of two beers this time!)
• My legs got some nice rest after Friday's long run, making this morning's run feel fabulous!
• Official Marathon training starts in FIVE days!! Yes!
Last day to vote... please head over and give me a click!! Vote here.
How was your holiday weekend?
Any fun plans to honor National Running Day today?
My holiday weekend was fun, but it has me screwed up too! I can't believe it's Wednesday already. I think I'm going to do some speedwork at the gym today before BodyFlow.
ReplyDeleteOh Man!! I biked this morning. I wish I had known!!
ReplyDeleteI will look into that Rock N Roll series though. Thanks for the heads up.
Thanks for the RNR heads up! Those races are super expensive, so this is amazing!
ReplyDeleteNice picture of you --- NOT. You always make me laugh when I read your blog. It was a beautiful 65-70 degree morning (I always wonder why no one thought to put the degree symbol on the keyboard), so I was out this morning giving thanks to God that my ankle and knee have recuperated from my little 5K run. It felt good to hit the pavement again.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, poison ivy and sunburn? When you do it up, you do it up! I can't believe you ran today, I bet that was a bit of an itchy challenge. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteVegas isn't included in the discount :( I think I cried a little.
ReplyDeleteI'm seriously impressed that you are running with sunburn and poison ivy. I would probably throw myself a pitty party and eat ice cream all day.
I got up at 5:30am and went to my kick boxing class. We ran outside during the class for about 10 minutes. It's a shame today isn't my running day. I do that on TTH and Sunday. Hopefully I'll schedule better next year! ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a bummer about the poison ivy! Hope you get better soon!
You, the sunburn + poison ivy sounds horrible, sorry to hear that! And that's cool about the rnr series!
ReplyDeletewe want a pop-up SO bad...was it all you hoped it would be? We're headed back to our Yogi in a few weeks!
ReplyDeleteWe celebrated today with an early morning run, signing up for my VERY, FIRST HALF MARATHON set for January...hmm, don't even know when to start training??!
Don't forget to sign up for my virtual 5K!
I hope you feel better soon! Sunburn AND poison ivy... ouch!
ReplyDeleteNice pics with awesome write up..
ReplyDeleteHi Jess! I'm a running mama too! Found you through a weekend blog hop. I SO love to connect with other running moms, and look forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Poison ivy sucks! And a sunburn on top of it?? You poor thing!
Nice to "meet" you!!
Jen
Just checking in to see how you're doing. Hope you've recovered from the poison ivy? Thought of you as I boiled a whole package of pasta today...
