I seriously used to laugh at those who used essential oils. It reminded me of people who used to sell snake oil. Every time that I got sick or had an ailment, friends would ask if I had tried this or that oil, I would politely smile and say that I hadn't. I've always been skeptical - the roll your eyes kind of skeptical.
A few months ago, a teacher friend was having a
doTERRA party with the option of purchasing $5 roller ball bottles. I didn't make it to the party, but I did buy a few roller ball bottles. For $5 I thought I'd give it a try, then I could tell those that yes I've tried it and move on so to speak.
I even laughed as I told my mom that I was giving them a try. I told her that I didn't think it would work, but it was worth trying. (I'd been dealing with a sinus infection for weeks that just wouldn't go away.)
I'm still a few weeks out from my taper, and right now, I'm really looking forward to it. Of course, reality may be different once it actually gets here. :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck at marathon #2!
I was the same way when I was running 18-20 mile LR. I couldn't wait for it to get here. Now that it's here.. I'm going a little stir crazy. Good luck on your race!
DeleteTrust the taper. Your body needs it.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I'm telling myself :) Although I'm not fully convinced ha ha
DeleteGood luck. I'm tapering now for Philly and I know that I couldn't make it without this last stage.
ReplyDeleteYeah, my knees are bugging me pretty bad after my last 20.. so I know I need the rest. Good luck with Philly!
DeleteThe taper is where all the magic occurs! Trust! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks.. that's what I'm telling myself. I can't believe that the marathon is this Sunday!!
