I’ve been meaning all week to fill you in on my crazy idea to run another half marathon in five weeks after my amazing race here in Berlin.  Including how my easy “recovery” week turned into two weeks, and how I’ve been nursing some soreness around my Achilles tendons.  But if you can stand the suspense, I think it makes more sense to wait until the end of the week to give you the full scoop on how training has been going so far.

But until then, how about some Five Senses?

Seeing:
* our new sofa, which has finally arrived!  Our old, tiny, Ikea one will be donated as quickly as possible. Hurray!

Hearing:
* Ben Howard play a sold out show here in Berlin.  Totally exceeded my expectations!  Great energy and a great show.  I love it when musicians are better live than on their albums.

Tasting:
* strawberries.

Smelling:
* nail polish.

Feeling:
* like my legs are jello after incorporating some strengthening exercises into my routine.

So, that’s about it for me.  How has your week been?
