I always look forward to March Madness. This year, it just kind of snuck up on me. Time flew and before I knew it, it was time to fill out brackets. I’m ashamed to say I didn’t fill one out this year. I would have picked one of the big upsets – FGCU – Florida Gulf Coast is right by the house in Fort Myers and I like to pick a few randoms like that. Oh well. I will cheer them on and of course the Buckeyes and Gators. It’s an exciting time of year for sports fans, watching the games, seeing people get so fired up about upsets, and of course enjoying the office chatter (takes a little of the work place stress away).
Along with March Madness comes beer, pizza, and parties. It’s tough at times, saying no thanks, having to explain to people that you are training…blah, blah, blah. Sometimes I wish a simple, no thanks was good enough. People are always so curious, but I don’t mind. It’s the lifestyle I choose and 5 weeks out, I am loving it! A beer doesn’t make March Madness more fun for me, I just honestly love the sport, seeing collegiate athletes realize their dreams, and enjoy time with friends and family.
Today brings snow and coldness, and honestly I am just tired. Once in a while I have to listen to my body and rest. I got in a SUPER DUPER (yep I said it) workout this morning and am planning to do a yoga workout during one of the half times. So today I’ll be relaxing, enjoying a simple Sunday, and getting ready for another week ahead! And of course, cherishing my Diet Mountain Dew treat and enjoying my UMP pancake – thank goodness I can eat these treats every day!
