I’m leaving on a jet plane – Holidays 2013

What a week! I was super busy as usual with life and such. I followed through on easing back on crossfit and substituting more short runs. I ran 22k over 4 days. I had some great and some not so great speed sessions. Knock on wood I will be ready for my half-marathon next weekend!

Not much to report otherwise. I’ve been quite boring lately. Work. Run. Crossfit. Sleep. Eat. Repeat.

I have two holidays planned this year – Nova Scotia (in two weeks) and Phoenix (in December). I am on the fence about going to Victoria in October to run the marathon. I never take holidays so this is a big deal for me.

My N.S. trip is for simply for pleasure and adventure. I can’t wait. I haven’t had a holiday that wasn’t running related since I took up running nearly 4 years ago. I’m psyched!
I will spend time mostly in the Annapolis Valley and along the Fundy Shore. I can’t wait to dip my feet in the ocean and re-connect with old friends.

In December, Audrey and I will run the Tucson marathon together. We are both training to qualify for Boston. I can’t wait to spend time with my good friend.

I used to take for granted travelling when I lived in Asia. Now I miss it dearly. I feel like I am in some sort of rut. I hope the ocean air will give me the spark that I am missing lately.

Holiday plans? Where are you going?
