It's the Final Countdown.....

So clearly, my blogging skills have lagged behind a little these last few weeks.  I just couldn't get seem to sit down and put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard)!  But blog update, or no blog update, March 31 is on it's way.  We are officially upon event week...and the last few weeks have been rather eventful!
I have had a few minor setbacks (think strep throat for me and Ella and bursitis with a little cortisone)...but I think that someone was just trying to get my fiesty side going...and it worked.  As I sit here now, I am listening to my playlist- which is rather diverse.   The songs were chosen by many friends, and yes, I do remember out on the trail who suggested what song!
I haven't been able to run since last Wednesday...gotta give my hip every chance to get strong...so it will be a surprise when I take that first step Saturday morning.  I am biking to get the sweat and fidgets out...and we are in full taper mode at the Clinard house!!!!  Full taper mode without a running outlet....life is a little scary in these parts.
Yesterday I made 20 plus bags of 1.5 scoops of carbo-pro.  I also separated and bagged my honey waffles, gels, advil, S-Caps, endurolytes, peaches, and pears.  Clothes are appropriately separated and placed in large ziploc bags (and labeled as such!)....now we finalize the packing and rest and hydrate!!!!

Playlist below :)  There are still a few to add, but here is a good start.

Ella decided to make a Witch's Brew Saturday.....it was a good luck brew :)

 Waiting for KO and Teresa and other friends at the ATT trail full and half marathon!

Ella and Laney are carb loading, too!

 Someone else is resting up this week, too :)

Ella....dancing and sleeping...what more could a girl ask for?
