It was perfect timing. My marathon in Las Vegas was the weekend before Paul’s work conference in San Diego, so we left for three weeks on a fun family vacation.
When we arrived in Las Vegas, we did the one thing I’m not supposed to do before a marathon. Eat!
We met up with Paul’s sister and her family.
We ate lunch at Nacho Daddy.
And we ate delicious nachos.
Oh, it didn’t stop there. We had nacho dessert. Sweet fried chips, apple pie filling, with ice cream on top. Don’t forget about the whipped cream drizzled with caramel sauce.
After lunch we went to our hotel and checked in. Right after we went to dinner. Oh, I was so full from lunch, but we had reservations, so we went to dinner.
That was our waiter. 🙂
The show started.
Eli was so chatty with the ladies. It was funny.
Dinner came. You eat with your hands. I had to take a picture of Paul’s dinner. There was a whole chicken on his plate.
The jousting began.
Eli loved it!
Our knight won 🙂
The second worst thing to do before a race is to stay up way to late. And not just staying up late, but walking around making my legs tired. After the dinner and show we played some video games.
We did eat a lot, but since the marathon didn’t start until tomorrow evening I though I would be okay. I will limit my food intake tomorrow afternoon.
