6 degrees of seperation

It's Monday, Monday, Monday and in six days it will be Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!
HP08 and Senor Ocho did their last "long" run this weekend going back to the heart of their training program, the National Mall. They did 7 miles at a decent clip and then the Ocho iced down her entire body, more specifically both of her knees. On Sunday each of the Ochos started their marathon diet too. Essentially this means that they eat a balanced diet and a lot of it. So far today, the Ocho has had:
2 boiled eggs
1 bagel w/ light cream cheese
1 apple
1 large salad with lettuce, tomatoes, feta, tuna and olives
1 bag of animal crackers
Tonight will be chicken with pasta and sauce with some green beans or broccoli on the side.
Yes, it's kind of gross. (For the good of the children, I won't list what I ate yesterday.)

The Ochos can hardly believe that this thing is a mere 6 days away. It seems like a lifetime since they started training, but somewhere in the back of her mind HP08 probably never really believed they were going to do it. Now it's less than a week away!!!

Until next time, here are a few photos the Ocho took this weekend. Enjoy the Fall!
