My Weekend

Want to know what I did this weekend? My husband and I went down to San Diego to stay in the Marriott Marquis & Marina Hotel and it looks like this.

Really neat-o and big and right near the water! With this cool, fancy pool...

that we did not go in. I didn't bring my swimsuit, which is very unfortunate because it was a beautiful, sunny day! But the whole reason we came to San Diego in the first place is because my friend has gotten me very interested in running again. She has also convinced me to be in a race...a BIG race, which I have never done before. So we signed up for this Hot Chocolate Race and, boy, that is the kind of race you want to have as your first one! What is a better incentive to run than CHOCOLATE?

Plus, it was dark chocolate, my favorite! And it's good for you!! So we woke up before the sun came up to walk to the racing area.

Every person in the race got one of these cool hoodie, sweatshirts that my husband has on. They had an awesome swag bag for this race! Then afterward we got this big mug full of goodies to help replenish those calories we burned.

A cup of hot cocao in the middle, dipping chocolate on the side for the pretzels, marshmallows, banana, or anything you wished to dip. Ha ha! I ate the banana and a couple pretzels, then we went out for a big breakfast. We had such a great time, we want to run in another one! Here we are with our wonderful friends who were so encouraging I could not have done this without them!!

So stay tuned and I'll let you know what happens! Thanks for stopping by! Taniya
