Music Monday: Catch My Breath

by // // Comments off

This weekend, I had back to back races with a 5K on Saturday and a half marathon on Sunday.  But then I don’t know what’s worth back to back races or two half marathons less than a week apart.

With little rest for the weary after the half marathon, I spent the afternoon with my family and Thomas the Tank Engine at Day out with Thomas: The Go Go Tour.  Then, very early this morning, I appeared on the Mom Squad on WTSP 10 News. Mind you, this was all after a very busy blogging week and never recovering from the clocks moving forward.

Again not back to back marathons, but it was almost as exhausting.  Now, this week I just need a moment to catch my breath.

With Spring Break and Easter next week, rest is now or never because my kids and I have compiled a list of fun things for our Spring Break staycation such strawberry picking, a visit to Airheads, a trip to the beach, canoeing and Busch Gardens.

Will you be resting and catching your breath over Spring Break or do you have lots of fun adventures planned too?

For Music Mondays, I’m now teaming up with my good friend and fellow Marathon Mama, Chrissy.

    I get to catch my breath today and tomorrow. Then subbing and spring break. We have some fun things planned but my boys like the down time (vegging in front of the video games). LOL

    Seems like “Catch My Breath” is the current soundtrack of fitness-focused people everywhere, and rightfully so! Love this song, I just hope it doesn’t get too overplayed (like so many other songs). This is my first year out of college, so its my first year wishing I had a Spring Break to enjoy. Yours sounds like it will be a lot of fun though!

    We saw Thomas this weekend too 🙂 My 3 yo loves it so she and grandma went while hubby and I ran a 1/2 marathon.

    I didn’t get to dance with you last week because I was in Naples, Florida. I knew you lived in Florida, but I didn’t realize you were in Tampa until today. If I had known, then I would said a hello to you as we passed through your town, girl. lol

    It’s great to get on the virtual dance floor this week (for me) to Kelly Clarkson’s “Catch My Breath”. Thanks for joining us on Monday’s Music Moves Me!
