All Fun & Games

I was on the road for work today so I thought early on in the week that today would be my day of rest.  I was hoping I might squeeze in a run, however, I had a much better opportunity come up.  My fabulous, precious, amazing, darling, sweet, incredible... you get it... niece and nephew are in town so I skipped that short run to chill with them this evening.  I think my left knee and shin could use the rest too. 

Since starting my training, I have had this insatiable appetite for candy.  I even met and talked to a lady in the candy aisle at the grocery store for 20 minutes.  Luckily, I left with only a small bag of gummy bears.  Whew.  When you start meeting people in the candy aisle at the grocery store you're clearly in that aisle too long!  For the most part, I have been able to resist the temptation to eat candy everyday.  I have definitely splurged more than I would have previously allowed since I started training.  Again, although my goal is still somewhat undefined in this race, it is Clearly Not to lose weight. 

I wonder if playing badminton with my four year old nephew and bouncy horse with my two year old niece constitutes cross-training.  ...Anyone?  Ahhh.... I forgot the pictures!  Tomorrow, promise.
