Wine & Dine Training Week 4 Recap & Half Marathon Survival Kits

 

I am in a fog recovering from a fabulous week in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I didn�t stress or focus on training, and I gained a couple of pounds. It is what it is. I�m not upset, and I am ready to get back to working hard!

They weren�t anything fancy, but just a little something to provide some encouragement on their way to this awesome goal.

Contents: a mix CD of running themed tunes, 13.1 car decal for when they cross the finish, running fuel like GU and Honey Stingers, Nuun electrolyte tabs, Biofreeze for those sore muscles, little baby Body Glides, lacrosse balls for rolling out those knotty muscles, an inspirational collage to sit on their desks at work, and a note reminding me all the reasons they want this and how I totally know they can do this!

I cannot wait to be there when both of these lovely ladies cross their first ever half marathon finish line!
