Vaction is over

For the last two weeks I was on vacation at the beach. I love the ocean and it was a good time. That said, my training went no where. I did get out for 7.2 miles one day. I did a lot of walking overall, but also a lot of eating. At the water park we went to I stubbed my toe, not like a little brush with something solid, but like a black toe, I thought it was broken kicking of the foot into a hard object. Stupid. Anyway, that prevented anymore running and changed my view of walking for a while. By the end of vacation it appears to be better enough and not broken. My shoulder is better but still bothers me enough that I can't sleep on that side. Last, I came back a rather portly 179lbs. I guess I really did eat a lot, and drank some beers. Must keep in mind that vacation is a good time to relax and recover both mentally and physically. I've read that two weeks off will take 4 weeks to gain back in physical conditioning. These injuries and setbacks are just part of it and I think they are for everyone. I can't wait to get started training again.
