Not really sore at all. My quads feel a little tired but thats about it. The worse soreness I have is my abs from throwingup/dry heaving all sat afternoon!  So nice to sleep in and not stress last night about getting to bed early. Plan on running easy tomorrow. I SO WANT redemption for this race. I told myself and my husband that after SG I was going to back off of racing for awhile and I wanted a break (just from racing) . But I so dont now. I just want revenge!  I dont know what my future over the next months has in store but I will continue my training and just play everything by ear and see what happens. I have thoughts of PF Changs with Michelle in January......

Went and ran easy with Heidi today. Actually felt pretty good. I wish I could say I am sore, but I'm not. Nice to go easy and poor Heidi got to hear all about the marathon, I talked the entire time and she was so nice to listen!

(Thanks Beka for the cute note and goodies you dropped off last night and I dont care you stalk my blog :o)

Oh so needed this run! Felt so good to get back out again. Feeling a little out a whack with not running and having my post marathon fat week! I went out on my own today and am one of those extra paranoid people, but I think I may have gotten followed at the end, I was just finishing up and had to run down my street a little to make it an even 11 miles and a van pulled up behind me like they were going to the mailbox, got a really weird feeling and hurried and ran past him and ran into my house (I know stupid because if he was following me he now knows where I live) and he just turned around and drove off, it was not normal, it was creepy! Overall though felt pretty good on my run, legs got a little tired and heavy towards the end and hammie felt a tad tight.

Ran with Jody up in West Valley. Did an out and back run. Felt pretty good, could still feel my hamstring, it would come and go throughout the run. Legs still don't feel super fresh, still heavy feeling. Ran easy out with Jody and then we turned around and I ran ahead a little. I get one more day of getting a treat each day but come sunday I am back on the straight and narrow. I now know why I try to stay away from my treats, they taste good going down but then I feel like crap after. My body is just not used this much sugar anymore! But Jody made some dang cute cookie dough last night! We went to a wedding yesterday and between wedding and wedding dinner went to the gateway and got a few things at Ann Taylor Loft (I justified to my husband because I had a coupon I had to use:) so that helped cure/ease my post marathon blues:) Thank you for shopping and clothes!
