I have had a fab time away but had flu and gave it to my fiance!!!!!
Awful, he took 3 days off, and I spent time in bed in Zermatt :(
But it was an amazing trip away and i have come back rested and fitter than lately...
I was experimenting with running for time not distance and also walking some short distances on the same day as a run...... this has paid off now that i have 'increased' to running for distance... I did 1.5 miles in intervals with 1 mile walking in intervals, (in total 2.5 miles)...
This for me is progress and i will keep it up ! I have entered 2 races, one in Richmond in March and one in Penryn in April, (both 5k's).... I don't want to make the same mistake of running one race and having nothing to look forward to except for recovering and some long - distant - not - entered - yet - race.
Had an amazing long walk in the snow and about 6 tobogganing runs while i was away.... plus lots of spa's in the hotel in the afternoon. Was a great trip away and getting ill didn't ruin it even slightly.

Those two race goals will help keep your training honest!! I only have one goal currently, my very first 50k race in April...great idea about having two racing goals so you have something to look forward after accomplishing your first goal...I should also plan another race goal soon.
No too familiar with San Diego as of yet but will be in 4 months, I believe the race does travel across the bridge. Side note, I have a fear of bridges and heights -- I'd better run fast to across it!
Sounds like you had a great vacation!!! That is awesome that you signed up for 2 races. :) I have to start planning my spring races too.
