It's crazy to think that by this time next week, I will have ran my second half marathon. I'm honestly a little nervous about my foot holding up and I still haven't ruled out trying to get into the doctor this week to see if I might be able to get a cortisone injection....just to be on the safe side. My foot feels really good today and tomorrow morning I'm going to hit the greenway for a run. Not sure on the mileage yet because my plan is just to do whatever feels good.
The weather has been on the cool side the past few days so I've ditched my overnight oats and gone back to good old PB & J oatmeal in the morning. I don't know what happened today but my oats were a little soupy so I had to microwave them a little longer and let them sit on the counter for a bit to thicken before digging in.
Work was fairly busy - typical Saturday. I was pretty excited to have leftover McAlister's in the fridge at work. That sandwich was just as good as it was yesterday. After I left work, I made a quick stop at Dick's Sporting Goods to pick up another running tank. Yes, we are heading into winter but I still like to use them for layering and my favorite Nike tank was on clearance in purple. Now I have one to match each pair of shoes :)
If you're ever in the market for a great running tank, The Nike Tight Chill Legend is the way to go. Long and lean with serious moisture-wicking action. It comes in tons of colors, too, which puts it in the same category as happy meal toys - I want to collect them all!
I also hit up the Starbucks in Barnes & Noble on my way home for one of these:
'Tis the season for Pumpkin Spice Latte's! I have to confess that this was not taken today (why I felt the need to admit that, I have no idea). I actually had a tall, non-fat, half-sweet one today. It was nothing short of amazing and paired perfectly with the chilly fall weather!
In preparation for the big race weekend, I've been busy cleaning the house since my dad is going to get here Thursday afternoon. I'm trying to tackle the big stuff like vacuuming the house and cleaning the bathrooms. That way I'll just have a little touch-up to do the night before he gets here. I took a break from cleaning because I worked up quite an appetite. Dinner tonight was........you guessed it. My favorite little salad. In my defense, I don't really have a choice but to have it in blocks of two nights in a row because of the avocado. You gotta use those things up! I did manage to snap my own picture this time.
The rest of the evening is a little up in the air. I will either a) get motivated and clean some more, or b) get lazy and crash on my couch to read. Kendra loaned me Born to Run and I'm pretty excited to get started on it. It's supposed to be very inspiring in terms of running - perfect timing leading up to the race!
