Recovery Supplements from Faster TomorrowI’ve been told there is sun in California—but if this past weekend was an example, I’m skeptical.   Talk about a cloudy weekend for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon!  (Something the locals call “May Gray” apparently.) But the cloudy skies didn’t deter from all of the pre-race fun at the San Diego Convention Center.

Liz and I had a great time representing Faster Tomorrow and meeting so many of the Rock ‘n’ Roll marathoners at the Health & Fitness Expo on Friday and Saturday.

Not exactly what you’d call a “runner,” I was particularly impressed by the number of Team in Training members running in the marathon.  We spoke with so many Team in Training runners at the expo and watched as a few teams completed their final training runs by the bay on Saturday morning.  The team and fundraising aspect definitely has me thinking a Team in Training 10K or half marathon might make the perfect post-pregnancy fitness goal.  Until then, I’m fully supporting Liz’s ongoing quest to become Faster Tomorrow’s latest triathlete!

(Speaking of becoming a triathlete, there were a few marathoners looking to get into triathlons.  If you were one of them, please check out our Triathlon Training Plan for Beginners.  I’m sorry we didn’t have copies on hand at the expo!)

I was also tickled pink when actor Danny Pudi—the BlackBerry “Butt Dialer” and Rock ‘n’ Roll marathoner—stopped by the Faster Tomorrow booth.  Because he humored me, I want to be sure to give his new show, “Community,” a shout out.  (Chevy Chase and the Soup’s Joel McHale also star.)  Look for it on NBC in the fall.
