After the marathon I took one week off. Here’s what I did:
 |
| Celebrated my 1st marathon with champagne |
 |
| Cheers! |
 |
| Sat on the couch |
 |
| Had a margarita |
 |
| Ate homemade truffles |
 |
| Had another margarita |
 |
| More couch time |
 |
| Ate lots of steak |
 |
| Even more couch time |
 |
| Ate mushroom risotto… |
 |
| sweet potato fries… |
 |
| and homemade pizza |
 |
| Then ended the week with one last margarita |
Now, it’s back to real life and working out. I have a triathlon on May 22nd so I can’t waste any more time laying around and eating delicious food. I’ve been to the pool more times in the last week than I went all last summer combined and I’ve already ventured out on 2-22 mile bike rides – I’m feeling good. But, if anyone is curious: yes, taking one week off was glorious!
Don’t forget about my Honey Stinger giveaway – it ends tomorrow (May 12) and you do not want to miss out on the chance to win these delicious little treats!
Sounds like a pretty good week to me! Maybe I should train for a big race just so I can take a week off. 🙂
Can I trade weeks with ya?! 🙂

Your week looks so good! I wish we were taking a vacation this year, but I wanted a very expensive puppy instead, lol.
