On Flowers and Toenails

Marathon Good Luck Lilies from my bff Holly.  It was such a boost when I got them on Friday and now that they’re in full bloom, I’m reminded every time I go into my living room how supported I was every step of those 26.2 miles!

In other news, I’m shocked by how great I feel post-marathon.  My legs were a little sore yesterday and today, the only thing that hurts are the 2 toenails I am definitely going to lose.  In all fairness to the toenails, if I had been pounded into shoes for 26.2 miles, I’d fall off too.  However, I think the long walk I went on Sunday night was clutch.  I kept those muscles moving and stretched out until I passed out at 8:30pm.  Best night of sleep.  Ever.

Have a happy little Tuesday, Chi-town!
