199 Days--Where's that Quiet Drive??

It seems to have left me.  My husband and I took a long weekend trip to Las Vegas this past weekend.  It was really nice, but it was also a huge stumbling block on my road to marathon training.  I haven't been the best about climbing on the treadmill lately and I seem to find lots of other things that need doing instead of running, strength training, or cross training. 
I did get a good run in while we were in Las Vegas.  My marathon buddy lives there, so she and I ran on the Strip at 8 am, dodging the last few revelers from the night before and jogging lots of stairs, as the Strip doesn't offer a very straight path on either side. It felt good to run outside and I did feel strong.  Maybe I just need it to get nice out here.
