I'm headed back home now but will have my race recap up this afternoon.  for sure, totally.  That or I'll sit around and read a bunch of DON, one or the other.

Both pieces are gone already as well as a Subway sandwich.  Howdy, marathon hunger.

Thanks Jacqueline for the ride and the fruit for the plane!

So I hitched a ride to the airport in her sporty little car with a pit stop at Starbucks.  I think I've found my coffee loving match.  No, actually I think Jacqueline and Kristin are star-crossed coffee lovers and should own a Starbucks together.

This morning Jacqueline offered to take me to the airport so I didn't have to BART it.  um, yes please.  Public transportation still kinda scares me.  Like if anyone gets mugged, lost or murdered, it will be me.

And check out this skinny little blogger:

It was really interesting to hear about Ashley's job and the whole living in a city thing.  Like, where are the Walmarts?!  I need to know!

Last night I met the adorable Ashley at Don Pisto's for dinner.  A reader recommended it so that's where we went.  I got really lost and was late, but Ashley still waited for my sorry heiny.  How pretty is she!?

Edited to Add: I just saw this Runner's World post on marathon recovery on fitfluential's twitter feed so go read that instead of me writing nonsense.

World's largest mirror.  I want.

You know how you feel when you're been sitting in the same position for a long time and you get up and feel all creaky and stiff and really old?  You want to avoid this by moving your body.

I was just asked about marathon recovery and I should do a post on it soon but if you can, move around a little, like a short walk, to get the blood flowing and work out the stiffness.

Usually I do a really easy hour-long run the day after a marathon, but my hamstrings were so tight this morning that I decided to give them another day to calm down and stop being so dramatic.

The hotel I'm staying at has a nice, large gym so I got up early to check it out and do a little shakeout workout.
