We went to Toronto for my husband's race and everything went well. It was my husband and 2 of our friends entering the race, and their husbands and I tagged along to cheer for them.
It was actually quite a nice evening. There was great conversation and the weather was perfect. There was a barbeque and beer tent on site for after the race, and we hung out there a bit afterward.
I wasn't freaking out about the bbq/beer tent because I knew it would be easy for me to say 'no'. I never touch bbq that I don't make because you never know if the sauces or burgers have gluten in them (most do), and I can't drink beer for the same reason. But then we got in there and my friend yells over to me "Hey! They have Smirnoff Ice!". She knows I can drink that, so she buys me one without a second thought. (sigh)
I thanked her and drank it slowly while they all had their beer (except the husband who was driving). I stopped at the one drink and I'm happy about that. Even when we got home my husband asked me to have another drink with him, and I actually didn't feel like it, so I said no thank you.
Instead I had a hot lemon water and went to bed.
Even with the unexpected Smirnoff I still managed to keep under 1000 calories for the day. Overall it was a good recovery from the day before.
