1. Getting Back in Shape - It seems a little weird to be saying that I need to get back in shape when I ran a marathon on Saturday but 2 weeks of carb-loading and light running with little to no cross-training has left me aching for a good workout. I have done virtually no form of exercise since Richmond and I have loved every second of it. Don't get me wrong, I love running but it was only yesterday that I was finally able to walk up and down the stairs like a normal human. Tonight, I'm going to Refine Method with Ashley and tomorrow, I'm trying out a spin class on an 'unstationary' bike. Quite frankly, it terrifies me and I'm really scared I might fall off the bike. We'll see.
This video makes me giggle.
2. Anniversary - The Pilot and I had our 3 year anniversary on Tuesday...and last night, we learned that we both have the same favorite style of beer. We've had a lot of fun together and this year, he's been there for me through a lot of not so fun stuff and it means the world to me that he's stuck around. Here's to the next year being even better than the last 3. I love you babe.
3. NYC Marathon - I've gotten a lot of questions about what's happening with the NYC Marathon. Well, I don't know. New York Road Runners has been dead silent since they cancelled the race other than to ask for 'patience' while they sort this out. Really? It's been 2 weeks. Every so-called expert from pro-runners to coaches to Runners' World and the New York Times has formulated some kind of opinion on how NYRR should handle the situation and they've all, for the most part, come up with some pretty sensible solutions. I don't understand why it's taking a random person behind a computer 20 minutes to think up a well thought out solution and blog about it, when it's taking NYRR 2 weeks...and counting.
That's all for today!
If you don't hear from me, I've fallen off a spin bike somewhere!
Awwhh, you and the Pilot are so cute!
