A Hangover & A Giveaway!

Anyone 4 weeks out of a marathon knows that this title didn't come from too much beer ... I'm talking 20 miler hangover. Let me whine just a tiny bit more about running 20 miles.

When I woke up Sunday, I felt like I had a long hard night with a bottle of tequila & wayyyyy too much dancing. My legs ached, my lower back was sore, killer headache, my shoulders hurt, and OMG my butt. My butt! ouch. Ice bath after the run was great but nothing completely stops the pain of a run that long.

My heel has been hurting too much to run since then, so I am a day behind on my training this week. I'm already certain it will keep me from the time I was hoping to have, but I will still do the race - even if I have to walk some. Walking is not usually something I would be ok with - but if it's that or not do it - then walking some it is. I know I can run at least 20, it's just how much I want to pay for pushing myself after. hmmm.....pondering that thought a bit.

OK! Now for a giveaway!
At the beginning of my training I told you about becoming an ambassador for Marathon Bar. Well, it's time to share that coolness with you & give you some goodies! I'm not just saying this because I'm wearing their clothes - these little babies are tasty!

You have several chances to win. Give me a separate comment for each, be entered once for each comment!
Here's what I wanna know from you:

1. Follow my blog & tell me you are

2. Tell people about this giveaway - blog it/facebook it/tweet it/scream it out the front door. Tell me what you did.

3. Give me one of your fitness/health goals.

4. Check out the Marathon Bar website. I specifically like the Performance Tools tab.
Check it out here
Determine your caloric & nutritional needs or your ideal weight. It's pretty cool. Don't freak out - you don't have to tell the whole blog world what any of those are.....but leave me a comment telling me you checked that out. You can also order some bars online.

That's it! Easy peasy.

What am I gonna win you ask?? I will hook you up with 2 boxes of Marathon Bars .... shipped right to you. Now, you don't have forever to do this because someone out there might be really hungry for some Marathon Bars. I'll pick a lucky winner this Sunday. Good Luck friends!
