Recovery Time

No, I'm not recovering from a long run (that's easier than this). I am still recovering from VEGAS. The old party girl in me was out in full force, but she just can't recover like she used to.

You know the old adage for Vegas, so it's staying there. But I'll share with you some of the highlights...
  • Yummy Food
  • LOTS of free drinks
  • Suite at The Palms
  • Cabana Time
  • Dancing, Dancing and more dancing and then some more dancing, after dancing.
  • Star Sightings = Tyra Banks, Wesley Snipes, Kid Rock & Rev DMC (of course), Exhibit, Suge Knight, Kelly Clarkson, George Maloof (had dinner with him)
  • Awesome Seats at the Concert

Spicy Latina is one spicy girl. I highly recommend you go out and get your own friend like a Spicy Latina.

Now it's time to focus on my race, get these 5 lbs off try to stay healthy!

    That sounds fantastic!

    Its so funny how after we go on vacation, we always seem to need to recover from it...

    Sounds like a blast! Glad you had a good time. Yeah, you may need to recover, but it sounds totally worth it.

    Sounds like a blast. Before I settled down and had kids, I followed the adage: Work hard, party hard, recover like a sissy.

    Ms. P.O.M.-- as a runner whose blog I have been following, you must know that since I managed to fall during Saturday's race and fracture my foot (necessitating a cast for 6 weeks), I will be running vicariously through you and any other runners I know-- either cyber or real time. So yeah. Run like the wind at Portland!

    Sounds like it was a blast. I would have pushed my grandmother over to see kid rock. I am kind of into him even though he is beyond trashy.

    From time to time I miss Vegas. But I can only handle a trip every few years...it takes me that long to recover!

    Hey -- I'm not so old after all. I know the names of 5 of your star sightings, and could recognize 4 of them! Rest up my dear; I'm looking forward to a kickass race report!
