We Survived
Disneyland in 97 degrees and very high humidity. At one point I got super confused by the weather and thought we somehow ended up in Florida. Yes once I again I am a weather wimp! Thankfully kids do not care about heat or humidity and they went 200% the entire time!
We ended walking about 7 miles in total between the two parks. It was not crowded at all and I think the longest line was to wait to see the princesses. Other than that we walked on just about every ride. Love that.
This Morning
I decided after 2 days off to try a short run. I put in close to 2.5 miles at a slow pace (avg 8:30) and felt ok. Got home and iced/stretched only to feel a little bit of soreness and hour or so later. Starting to think I am once again going to have to take at least a week if not more off to resolve this. I am super bummed because I really wanted to be ready for Maui!
In an attempt to make myself feel better I went and picked up my race packet for tomorrow.
Yes that is a bar. Yes that is where packet pick up was.
If Janae was running this race she would have walked out of packet pick-up directly into here
Sorry for the really bad picture. I didn’t realize it was there until we were driving away. Snap shot as a passenger didn’t work out like I thought it would! HA! I haven’t been to Pacific Beach in ages so I had no idea Yogurtland on Garnet had opened. If it would have been there when I was in college I would have been at CBW and YL nightly. Thank goodness those places came after I moved!
Tomorrow’s Race
Will be a game time decision. It really isn’t worth making my Achilles worse so if it is sore in the morning there is a good chance I will not be running. Arrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.I’ll pray about it tonight.
Did you miss
My last giveaway? AMY scored this sweet FALL package
Yes he is a jar filled with hot cocoa! The candles are oatmeal raisin cookie and they smell so darn good.
I will do another one at the beginning of October with a Fall theme! Keep your eyes peeled 🙂
Til Tomorrow!

I have never been to a Yogurtland… but dang, everybody talks about them like they are all kinds of amazing… so, I guess I’ll have to look up the closest one and take a fieldtrip. 🙂
And man, I’m so bummed about your ankle. Not fun. The fact that it’s not doing the crinkling thing is good. But I think your decision to possibly play it safe tomorrow is a wise one. If you take care of it now, you won’t be off as long… and one week of cross training really won’t make much of a dent in your training or fitness.
I used to coach with a girl who thought it would be brilliant if we could have come installed with little doors all over our body (I know it sounds gruesome), so that when something hurt or wasn’t working right we could just open them up and replace or fix what needed attention and shut the door and be on our way… 🙂 If only…
Yogurtland is good but it is EXPENSIVE. They charge you per ounce and only put out ginormo cups. Kind of silly! If I have a choice between YL and Goldenspoon I choose Goldenspoon 🙂
I opted out of race this morning. Woke up with a lot less soreness which is great. Prayed about it and decided it was a no go. I know myself and would have pushed hard and that would have aggrivated my ankle for sure!
Little doors…I like it! If I didn’t get injured I would never learn anything 🙂 That’s the bright side, right?
