My quads hurt

So here i am....at work with a bit of time to recap my last weeks. I was sick.....really sick and unfortunately the worst of it fell on the day of Toddfest. Well, it went off without a hitch anyway. The bands rocked, Boomerz rules and everyone had a great time....especially Matthew who ripped his pants at the after hours party at our place while doing his version of the Thriller dance....I will post that to the blog once I get home.

I pretty much took it easy the rest of the week to recover enough for a long run on Saturday. Sat morning was an early one meeting with my group at 5:30 for a 16 miler. I can't believe that I actually finished. It was most likely the worst run of my life. it was slow, hot and I would have hacking fits every 5 miles or so. I probably should have not run but I was really glad that I did and that I finished despite how long it took. I pretty much decided on Saturday to never take another extreme amount of time off from training as I have over the past year.......it sucks getting back in the saddle.

So after my run I hit the gym to shower and went straight to work....BOO!!! but after work we headed down to Houston to catch the Candlebox show:) Let me just say.....WOWZA. The show was amazing, the sound was really nice at the venue. The Warehouse is downtown but the MinuteMaid park, which I have also not been to yet. The show was not sold out which made for plenty of room for the crowd and we were able to get fairly close to the stage. The opening band was really good too, which made for a really nice evening. The dinner and big ass $11 margaritas at Cyclone Anaya's didn't suck either.

Okay.....gotta answer the phone and get back to work.....OUT~~
