I'm back

Hey everybody.  Sorry for the disappearing act, but i was on a 2 week business trip to Vienna and Moscow (which was pretty cool).  When I was in Russia especially, it was hard to get online for anything other than communicating with my family or for work.  I will tell you that training for a marathon/goofy while doing international travel really sucks.  But i was able to squeeze in a 15 miler last weekend on a treadmill in the basement of the hotel.  Not a fun way to spend a morning I can tell you.  I was also able to put together 5 or 6 workouts out of 12 days of travel, which is about as good as I was expecting.  I'm feeling pretty underprepared for goofy and will attempt to put in 19 tomorrow.

Soooo... what did I miss?  Jillian, did you run your marathon yet?

Welcome back! As you saw on FB, the marathon is tomorrow, but it might as well be tonight since we are doing a 2am wake up to be in Jacksonville. We are just too cheap to leave tonight and get a hotel room.

"I'm feeling pretty underprepared for goofy"

Ha! I wish I was as under-prepared as you! I haven't run since Oct 27th and haven't worked out since Nov 5th, not counting a 17 mile easy bike ride on Nov 19th.

I thought for sure I'd get through this weekend without a headache and be able to start running tomorrow or Monday but my kid's play today give me a good one (too much noise and talking starting about 10 am this morning and only stopping half an hour ago). Gah!

I'm hoping I can get in two weeks of running before the race so I can at least get through the Half Marathon but it's not looking good.
