No change

on the scale that is. 133 this morning. I think that is a good thing since I didn't really watch it last week.

Update on the wind: It has been very windy overnight and is suppose to gust up to 40mph by the time we leave for Havasu. I am concerned because taking our boat with us! We are traveling through open desert to reach Havasu and I am hoping we aren't blown all over the road.

Here is the forecast for tomorrow: at the start 7 am 54 degrees with 10 mph winds. Perfect running weather!!

I have all of my running gear packed and ready to go. I charged all of my electronics: phone, Garmin, ipod, and camera. I have my 2 Gus ready to go thanks to my friend Alison, a teacher who works at one of my schools. She gave me a beautiful good luck card and my favorite kind of Gu yesterday. She is so sweet! Thanks again Alison. Have a great trip. :)

I leave you now with some pictures from my Las Vegas half. Passing mile 13! I am in the pink.

the ultimate end- the finish line!!

Happy 8 month anniversary!

Final Run before Havasu

Yeah, I know, I was bad this weekend. I was totally lazy and didn't do my long run. However, I did get my dress rehearsal in today after school. I tested out my marathon outfit and new play list I made for Havasu and ended up running 4.25 miles on the treadmill today. I felt really good. I hope I feel just as good on Saturday. The only thing that bothered me was this guy running next to me-FLAT FOOTED. Don't you hate it when people stomp on the treadmill? I tried turning up my tunes though I could still hear his big feet hitting the treadmill!!Then, I give him the teacher stare but it didn't work either. UGH! So annoying!
Only 3 more days of work and it's Spring Break!!! YEAH.
Havasu here I come...

the famous London Bridge I will be running over!

Random post of the week

I was reading a random blog today and discovered that Nutella, the creamy and dreamy, hazelnut spread Giada always uses on Everyday Italian is made in my hometown of Somerset, New Jersey. How crazy is that??
