I LOVE marshmallow peeps.  Gooey sugar coated with sugar.  What’s not to love?

When the kids were little we did peeps dioramas for a contest that the Pioneer Press used to have (or maybe they still have it?).  Stumbled across this peeps diorama photo today from the Washington Post.

Peeps Running a Marathon.  How cute is that!?!?

Life has gotten really crazy and really hard recently.  I’m trying my best not to let it knock me down.  But it’s really really hard.  I know one thing:  I’m more thankful than ever that I have running to keep me sane during all of this.  My Boston training plan has entirely gone out the window.  I’m now just running what I want/need, when I want/need to run.  I’ve also been doing pilates and biking.  I won’t be in race ready mode for Boston by any stretch of the imagination – but I’ll be SO ready for a weekend of funning and running.
