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...

Laurel said...

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.

Victoria said...

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!

Julianne said...

Oh I loooove Vegas! Wow, so many star sightings!! You must know the right peeps!

I've never been to Vegas... someday I'll go but I hope its with someone as fun as you and not my fuddy duddy hubby who thinks fun is going back to the hotel at 8pm. LOL

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.

Chic Runner said...

Jealous you went to Vegas! :) I didn't know you were from Newport! I am always running down there.. Hmmm love it!

Christie said...

Sounds like lots of fun. I don't know how you're functioning right now though. Get some rest.

Maggs said...

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

Unknown said...

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!
