Holy soreness!!!
My muscles are SO sore from the marathon!!
Literally every muscle in my body is sore: calves, hamstrings, quads, back, abs, the muscles in between my ribs (intercostals), shoulders, biceps, and forearms.
That just proves running is a full body workout!
I am also one slow-movin’ gimp today!
Let’s see. . . it hurts to:
- walk
- sit down
- stand up
- sleep (the pain wakes me up)
- walk up the stairs
- walk down the stairs
- bend to pick something up
- and it even hurts when I go to sit on the toilet.
But don’t get me wrong, it was SO worth it!!
. . . . . . . . . .
Surprisingly my appetite hasn’t been off-the-wall. It is actually pretty normal today—and yesterday as well.
I had a bowl of cereal for breakfast with Cheerios and Quaker Oatmeal Squares along with some banana slices.
I can’t remember if I have ever mixed two different types of cereals together before, but I was feeling adventurous today!

I ate the rest of the banana with peanut butter on it.

. . . . . . . . . .
For lunch I had a salad:
spinach + millet + garbanzo beans + red pepper + tofu + broccoli + MMM Sauce (by Mama Pea)

. . . . . . .
I forgot to show you the beautiful flowers Craig got me for the marathon.

He also got me this cute card. I couldn’t imagine how difficult it would be to find a running-related card!
