Holy cow what a week! I am exhausted, mostly mentally. Since Rob and I have been together forever I thought getting engaged would be no big deal. Easy peasy wedding, check. No fuss no muss wedding, check. Just about the two of us, check. Yea, I feel like none of that is happening, and we are barely one week in. I've said for quite some time that I would like to spend little to nothing on a wedding and put all that money into a down payment for our first home. Some how when the engagement ring gets placed on your finger you transform into your 6 year old self envisioning things you can't afford and really deep down don't want. Damn Pinterest and girly wedding magazines! My focus has really shifted off of running this week and I didn't even hit my targeted miles. Ugh.

Life ever get in the way of training?
Tell me it gets better?
In my experience, life & training normally fit together beautifully, like legos (although this took a few years). But even now, sometimes...they just don't. Square pegs, round holes. Most important thing is not to let one "off" week screw everything up. Jump right back in for next week.
