Future Husband and I had a lovely ‘date night’ tonight. In between the craziness of work, school, and life…. sometimes we forget to spend time together! 
We went to Spice, which was lovely… we’re thinking about hosting our rehearsal dinner there now, too! We ate out on the patio overlooking downtown Orlando. I started my meal off with a BIG GLASS OF WATER (no booze before the race!) and a yummy WW roll.
I think we can all agree restaurant bread is the BEST KIND!
I also had a baby greens salad, which included grapes, feta cheese, candied pecans, and green apples. I had a nice vinaigrette on the side.
And for my main course—PASTA, of course! The perfect pre-race dinner! I had mushroom and spinach ravioli. It was pretty good.
After our main course, Future Husband announced he "had" to have dessert. I wasn’t going to eat any until I saw this:
Ummm, HELLO!? This bride does not say "no" to chocolate cake. It was heavenly. I could literally smell the chocolate wafting up from me. I ate about 1/3.
When we got home, I laid out all my running clothes for tomorrow’s big 15K race and called Meghann to discuss the logistics for meeting up in the morning. I’m excited to have a racing buddy!
I am super excited and very optimistic that my leg will hold up! I’m going to heat (yes… heat… not ice. Icing has made this injury feel worse, oddly enough) it a little in the morning. I think I’m good to go, honestly!
For The Record….
Around 2:30, I ate a Larabar Ginger Snap while reading over some landscape plans…
I also had a not-yet-ripe peach….
And, around 6 PM, I had a handful of peanuts to hold me over until dinner.
OK — off to bed! I’m waking up at 5:15, having a BIG BOWL OF OATMEAL, and stretching out before I leave for the race! Wish me luck! I’ll be thinking of all of you!!
1 hour, 26 minutes or better… HERE I COME!!!
