Do I really have to go to work today? I was on vacation in Aruba all last week, and frankly, thinking of returning to the office is downright upsetting. Sigh… I think today’s going to be a yoga day.
Another reason today’s a yoga day – new distance PR yesterday morning. Yeah, I owned all 9.75 of those miles. The training plan called for 10 miles, and I realized only 9.5 miles fit the 10% rule of running. Therefore, I respected both by honoring neither. 9.75 sounded good to me.
My belly wasn’t feeling great for the entire run. That’s probably because I ate nothing but seafood and fruit for the entire week I was on vacation. The seafood was the kind smothered in butter, cheese, or peanut sauce. The fruit was the kind served as punch… with rum… lots of rum.
Though I’m sad to be returning to work, I’m at least happy to be home and sharing some pics with you.
Ahhhhh, that was nice. Have a great Monday!
- Best thing you did this weekend?
- Did you squeeze in a workout this weekend?

Those photos just look beautiful- so much sunshine. Brilliant work on the run too
I am off on a walk in a minute which is my current level/ limit for “working out”.

I have the same exact polo bathing suit, it’s my go-to! Welcome back to lovely cold snowy rainy weather!
January 24, 2012 at 8:04 am
I love the cut. I wish I could get the same suit in diff brands/colors/patterns/whatever to change it up from time to time.

JEALOUS. Seriously. Last week I had a spring vacation planned at this time. This year? I’ve got nuthin’. Sigh…
Good luck getting back into the swing of things!

January 23, 2012 at 10:15 am
Nope, didn’t mention it, but I had been planning it for a while now. I needed some sunshine!
January 23, 2012 at 10:14 am

Gorgeous pictures – jealousy accomplished!!

Your vacay looks and sounds amazing! Fruit and seafod, I could do that! Welcome back and congrats on your PR.
January 23, 2012 at 1:54 pm
I wish I went on vacation to a beach. Though not this weekend since I loved the snow in NYC.
And you look great! I wish I could look like that in a bikini!
January 23, 2012 at 2:41 pm
Aruba sounds so amazing right now! Glad you had a nice vacation and an awesome run!!
January 23, 2012 at 3:45 pm
Looks like a fab holiday/vacation!! I love eating fruit and fresh food on beachside holidays (and yes, in drink form is even better!). Congrats on your new distance PR!

I was really pissed off because I got an email from UTMB saying: “Due to the high demand for places in the above events we have held a draw and we regret to inform you that you have been unsuccessful.” But then I decided that either I would stay in bed feeling sorry for myself or I would go out an join my running group. I choose to go out and of course I felt a lot better after 10k in the snow
January 23, 2012 at 11:36 pm
Looks like one amazing vacay!! So pretty!!
And no, my only workout was taking my dog for a walk. A 6 mile run felt so good this morning!!
January 24, 2012 at 12:51 am
Photo envy right there! I need some tropical in my life.
January 24, 2012 at 11:46 am
