.....I got my period. No, I'm not worried about being pregnant. I was worried about getting it during my race on Sunday. Now my "heavy" days will be happening earlier so I should be okay for Sunday. PHEW!
Did you all miss me?
Had a great weekend with the family in VT but I'll make this all brief.....
Sunday - Drove up to VT in the a.m., stopped in a couple of stores and did not get up to the house until lunch time. Ate lunch, mowed the lawn, played with water balloons, killed big ass mosquito's, drove to the Long Trail Brewery for dinner (nachos, veggie burger and beer), back home to TV, pj's and a bowl of ice cream. WOD - Rest Day.
Monday - Woke up at a good hour, watched cartoons, breakfast (protein shake), packed the truck and headed to Plymouth State Park for a day of swimming with the kids. I decided to run to the park so I kissed the kids and left while my husband drove down and waved out the window. It was a 5.25 mile run that is not all that bad but very hot. Plus I needed to hug a tree half way and stop on this major hill and walk for a bit but I did make it in 47:10. Not a bad time for feeling lethargic and obese. The rest of the day the kids swam, fished, played on the play scape, grilled HB's and HD's (so damn yummy), rented a paddle boat, swam some more, ate some more and we finally left at 5:30 p.m. 7 hours at the park is a great day! Back home to baths, pj's, TV and ice cream.
Tuesday - I slept in today until 8:30 a.m. WONDERFUL! Packed up a small bag and headed to Killington Grand for a one night stay. Checked into our room, dropped our stuff, put our suits and suntan lotion on and hit the pool. It was another gorgeous day of sunshine and the pool was heated. The kids were very warm and happy. Jumped into the pool around 11 a.m. and did not leave until 5 p.m. We were all sunburned no matter how much lotion we put on, packed a cooler and ate lunch by the pool, drank some beers and found a family to hang out with. Actually it was us and them that occupied the pool. The rest of the place was deserted. So our three and their three kids played all day while we talked and relaxed. Good day!~ WOD - Rest day again!
Wednesday - Back into the pool in the morning, showered, packed up, drove to VT house, packed everything up, cleaned the house, ate a quick lunch and left to head back to CT. Left around 1 p.m. and drove straight through (just missed Springfield MA tornado's by an hour) to home. Got home at 4 p.m., unpacked, put everything away, did a load of laundry, got dressed and the whole family got dressed and off to the gym we go. Trinity and Todd both took class while the other two played in the daycare. Got everybody home, fed, to bed and Todd and I were actually able to sit and watch TV.
Thursday - Here I am....WOD - Rest Day...Work today, ran out at lunch to run errands and buy all my food for my race on Sunday. Needed to get the tampons for my "friend" as well.
It is now carb load, drink loads of water and slow down on the working out. With all that and my period I feel like a fat piece of crap. Oh my word! Tapering is tough because I don't feel so healthy right now. I just can't believe that race #1 is already here. Oh my goodness, now I'm very nervous thinking about it. Did not lose my 30 pounds but I did gain a ton of strength. That should count for something.
Tomorrow is my last workout before game day on Sunday. I'll let you know how that turns out :-)
