No run today.  My hip bothered me quite badly yesterday and was still sore this morning.  I stretched it good and it is feeling better, but I am not ready to risk an injury.  So I was lazy and at chocolate and watched TV before I headed to the office.  My days are still long 12 - 15 hrs a day but it is Wednesday and I only have 2 more days left before I leave.  I always miss my family so much and I cannot wait to see them but there is a part of me that loves being here.  I keep trying to convince my family to move to India, but no go.  I am sure if I lived here full time it would not be the same.  SO, two more days before I get to see my kids and be home and sleep in my own bed and run outside!

Yay! So close to HOME IN THE STATES time! :) That Nemrana fort is incredible! Hope your hip feels better soon.

A few days off here and there won't hurt you Jody! I completely understand being torn between getting home and enjoying something different. Thank you for sharing your trip. Awsome pictures and I really enjoyed your positive perspective - it is nice to be reminded how many things I need to be thankful for.

Take care! Travel safe.

Do you think you could fit your entire family on one of those motorcycles to get around???

I just learned from my DR that switching from outside running to treadmill running can actually hurt!!! So, be careful and take care. It is almost time to come home...

You're amazing! Those LONG work days and still getting in LONG runs too. Good luck with the hip!
