So I’ve taken another extended leave of absence from my own blog. Between our long runs on the weekends, lots and lots of late nights at work, and all of my online time going to Christmas shopping, I haven’t hit my blog in a while.
The runs are varying week to week – last weekend’s 20 almost killed me, but after I stopped at the 14 mile mark for a scream, rant, and cry, I was able to suck it up and finish. This week’s 20 was much better. Next weekend I attempt 22 for the first time, which is my mental breaking point. If I know I can do 22, 26.2 seems do-able.
 Holidays have been more hectic than ever this year. Can’t believe there are only 22 shopping days left! My list is narrowing down quicker than in years past, but I still have lots of shopping to do. Still trying to do as much online as possible so I don’t have to fight the vicious crowds at the Galleria. Fingers crossed that I can make it without another trip to the mall before the big day. If you’ve got a good shopping site, let me know – I’m discovering more and more each Christmas season!
