Will run for Egg Nog

I have a slight egg nog addiction. Ok, let's be real, I finished 3 half gallons since the supermarket staring selling it in early November so this is more than an slight problem. I'm being enabled in this addiction at work. Diane, our accountant and my first donor this year gave me a 50 cent coupon today :-). I fully understand a gallon and a half of egg nog does not a training diet make. So with steadfast self control I've decided that I will not imbibe the beloved nog until I have completed my scheduled runs. So today, after 31 minutes of running I opened the 4th half gallon. Cross training tomorrow so no more nog until Thursday and with any luck I hope to run from Crossroads on Thursday so pizza and beer after not egg nog. Drat! It is really good they only sell egg nog from November to New Years or I don't think I'd fit it my house.
