DURING MY 2 WEEK VACATION, I HOPE NOT TO GAIN MY TYPICAL 5-7LBS. MY GOAL IS A DAILY POST ABOUT WHAT I DID TO AVOID A VACATION SET BACK.

Our girls weekend really started in earnest today after a late night arrival of the final two of the four of us last night. Lucky to have someone with with a similar stature and speed to run, I had company for my morning run. And, though the altitude (my highest running locale ever) was a bit of a challenge and the heat was getting on even at 8:30am, we willed ourselves to get 5 miles done along the Cherry Creek Trail in Denver. This is me enjoying my post run hibiscus iced tea (in the Athleta Vibe Relay capri and a standard issue Adidas white ribbed tank.)

The afternoon consisted of noodling around the Lower Downtown neighborhood before heading to high tea at Brown’s Royal Palace. Followed by a quick jaunt to an art festival on Pearl Street in Boulder before capping the day off with a great meal at Salt Bistro. (more photos to follow–too tired to pull of media at the moment. It’s been a very active day.)

The Fitbit captured 27,301 steps today.
