Watch out Nashville, here comes Relay!

By the time you read this, I will be on a plane headed to Nashville for the 2012 American Cancer Society Relay for Life Leadership Summit!! I am so excited and can’t wait to be there!

Our trip includes a night’s stay at the Opryland Hotel! I’ve never been to Nashville (so this is definitely a first) and I’m really looking forward to it! I can’t wait to see the resort!

I love travelling to new places and seeing new things! This trip is extra special because I’m travelling with some extra special people – my ACS family!

This trip will definitely be a whirlwind of crazy fun! We are flying out of my home town at 6 a.m. Friday morning, spending all Friday afternoon and all day Saturday in classes, then returning back home at 8:45 p.m.on Saturday night! Two days full of ACS Relay fun!!

Tonight, I did something I never thought I’d do on a weekday – especially not after working and being on my feet all day! I ran a long run after work!  You see, while on vacation, I missed two long runs. I was able to catch up a little – last weekend, I ran a 16 mile training run. However, I didn’t want to miss yet another long run this weekend. SO, after work today, I changed into my running clothes and ran a 10 mile training run at home – which meant 5 loops around my neighborhood! It wasn’t bad and I made it through ok but boy am I tired! I hope to get a 5 mile run in sometime this weekend, also! 

When I return home, I promise to resume my NY trip. Until then, have a fabulous weekend!! :0)

  1. I stayed at the Gaylord this past summer, it was amazing. Have fun and check out the Aquarium restaurant over at the mall. It's a very short walk across from the grand ole port.
