A Dietary Sin

It was a good weekend, can't believe it is already Tuesday night. So much for keeping on top of things.

My sister was in town for a long weekend and it was great to hang out with her. I started out my weekend with a nice 5 mile run. I hadn't run in a week due to being sick all last week so I was excited to get back into it. (I've still got a cough, I'm hoping to kick this cold soon.) Then I hung out with my sister all afternoon. We went to see "Footloose", it was awesome but I ate a lot of popcorn and that was just the beginning.

I did admit to Lisa that I was planning on eating pizza and drinking wine. She called the pizza a "dietary sin". I totally agree but it has to be my very favorite food. And it was pizza from Steve's Pizza in River Falls!!! If you haven't had that pizza, you are missing out. I did eat the pizza and I ate a lot of it. I drank wine and ate chocolate too. Not good, but I did.

Sometimes I just feel that I need to eat that kind of food from time to time (with lots of time in between) just to remind myself why I eat good foods. I also ate plenty on Sunday too. It makes me happy for Monday morning and I hopped right back on that wagon as soon as my the alarm went off. I didn't run on Monday due to some sick kids, but I did run today and plan on a good workout tomorrow and the rest of week.

I'm in training mode for a 10K on New Year's Day so I don't have to put too many miles on my legs at a time and that's kind of nice. But come 2012, we will be training for a half marathon in March and I plan on running well at the race.

So here's to a good rest of the week and to feeling much better by the end of this week. And of course that Colton's head healing fast!
