Mid-Season Break
3 days OFF and then on Day 4 I walked for 90 minutes.

Thursday - Day 1
The first 24 hours of 'down-time' revolved around Deely being incredibly sick. I'd get into details but that would just be shitty...ha. Get it? Venturing out for a walk every 30 minutes through the night was certainly draining. Poor little baby.
Which reminds me...NO. BABIES.
After that riveting experience I went antiquing for the first time, bought pink nail polish (just because) and for the first time in a long time had ZERO dirty laundry. Sigh. Productivity.
Friday - Day 2
Friday became the new Sunday. Made the most amazing breakfast with Liz, drank a solid 3 cups of coffee and watched the first 2 episodes of "Orange Is the New Black". That lazy endeavor brings us up to noon on Friday. Went to work with the little guy, played on Pearl Street and ate way too much Almond Butter. #MYVICE
Saturday
I practiced being a home owner today. A role which involves Home Depot and results in a very long receipt. Lots of repairs and home-improvement projects in the works. Things are getting comfy over here. Had fabulous coffee with a friend and then drove to Denver for an APEX BBQ where some of us discovered our true calling....BASKETBALL. If there is no future in multi-sport at least we can each easily sign multi-million dollar deals playing hoops. #SoMuchAir
Sunday
Amongst other things, I WALKED with Deely for 90 minutes. Want to hear my conclusions about walking? It's not running & when it's not hiking...IT SUCKS. Thank god tomorrow is back to the groove. Looking forward to getting back into training. Feeling motivated and fresh. This was the first recovery break that I A. Didn't cheat (sneak in a workout) and B. Didn't even have the desire to cheat.

Here's to peace, playing 'catch-up', and 14 bottles of juice,
