Our camping vacation wasn't quite as relaxing as the above photo suggests, but we did a lot of sightseeing and soaking in onsens (Japanese hot springs) and it was overall a good time. I did some sock knitting but after about an inch my mind was spinning just trying to twist all my cables in the right places and my stomach was spinning from knitting on the windy roads, too. But it was a fun trip, even if I do need a week or two to recouperate.

We got home on Sunday night and then on Monday I headed out for a 5 mile run at my local gym (after a day at work AND a traumatic incident at the dentist). I am still patting myself on the back for actually running! I signed up for the Run-a-go-go 100 mile challenge on Ravelry this year, and I wasn't about to miss my mark by just 5 miles. Yesterday's run was hard after the loooong break, but I got the miles in and can say that I did finish my 100 miles before April 1st. I almost can't believe that I ran that far, especially because I only did 25 miles in both January and February. Now I am going to try not to spend the rest of the week zoned out on the couch, but no promises.
