I went home to Houston to go on a cruise vacation. We left Galveston on Sunday, January 23, 2011. It was my Mom's 60th birthday and we treated her and my Dad to a cruise. We had a wonderful time in the Caribbean and Mexico. Unfortunately, there was not a lot of training on the cruise- at least not for me. There was a lot of eating and drinking, but not much running. (Bruce did better than I did- he did 10 miles on Saturday, I just did not want to run 10 miles on the treadmill.)
I managed to run 20 miles (on the street--uggghhhh) on the Sunday before we left. I ran 5-6 miles here and there, but did not log significant mileage. I was planning to run long again on Sunday, January 30, 2011- the day we returned. Between unpacking, repacking (to head back to Virginia), spending some time with my doggies, and doing laundry, I was exhausted. Ok, so no long run this week- no big deal. I will be back on track in no time.
I am pacing Allen the last 40 miles of the Rocky Raccoon 100 this weekend. Bruce and Denise are running the 50 miler- so I get to see them too. I am volunteering for the race in the first 8 or so hours, then catching a little rest and pacing Allen for 40. We are going to have so much fun! It is going to be a blast- I have to think of some clever things to say to keep Allen interested in conversation. Other friends are planning to come out and help with crewing- it is going to be a reunion!
