I thought I'd start off with some cute pictures from NYC!

Kelly and I on the Hoboken waterfront with NYC in the background.

Spring!

Chelsea, COOPERRRR, and I in Central Park!

Though I haven't felt like a madwoman yet, today's been quite productive! I woke up a tiny bit later than usual, made some breakfast, and got to work on all of my thank you cards from over the weekend while catching up on my Bravo shows! haha I was able to finish those, do the dishes, and get in a good run before all of my other tasks...

The run felt pretty good! It's so exciting to be back to a pretty normal pace, though I know when I do longer distances I shouldn't be starting off at 8:30 miles. Of course it was just cloudy until I walked out...then it turned from mist to light rain pretty quickly. It was kind of refreshing, but it made it feel a lot colder than the spring days I've been getting used to.

I feel like I'm taking training a lot more seriously as I look and see how quickly the marathon is approaching. Going to the grocery store today I was picking up so many healthy things and am determined to not be lazy and cook good foods for myself for the next few weeks.

The marathon is even creeping into my dreams! haha I was telling the girls the other day how I had a dream that I came in 4th PLACE right behind all of the Kenyans, and we all stopped and took friendly pictures together afterwards haha Ohhh...maybe one day, if I quit my job, get sponsored by Brooks, and just eat breathe sleep running so much more intensely than I do now.

After the run I went over to drop off all of my newly acquired donations, and gave my brother at least 50 tickets to pass out to his friends for the fund raiser this weekend. Ahh Marathon Madness two weekends in a row! I can't contain myself! It's all happening so fast!
