We seem to have a real problem in our family letting our vacations end. We've been known to tack on a few extra days in Florida with some hospitable family who always seems to have room for us (I'm lookin' at you Bells). This time, after a whirlwind trip to New York City, Maine, St. John, and Halifax, we decided we couldn't just drive right by Ottawa and not stop, so we extended by just one night...And now we head home.

As you can see, we've fit in a whole lot of fun and adventure in the past 2 1/2 weeks!! Seems that early this morning my brain had already moved onto the next big thing...That thing being the 100km we are running in less than three weeks. Woke up to run in our beautiful Nation's Capital with the remembrance of a horrifying race nightmare. Turns out we had to bike portions of the run, but my bike went missing while I was doing a run portion. Don't fear, some kind soul had just locked it up in a nearby shed to keep it safe. Then much to my chagrin, I kept realizing that I was missing essential running items. I was running in dress socks and Chucks, among other non-running appropriate and horribly unfashionable attire, and continuously sent people home to get what was missing, you know because in my dreams you send someone home for one shoe and one sock at a time (thanks Brooke, you made a number of trips home for me). This my friends is a problem...We have not even started tapering yet, and I am clearly suffering from a mental breakdown.
