Back At It

Gym day today since I wasnt at work yesterday (gym is on work campus)

5 miles:  treadmill
upper body weights (the usual)

PF is aggravated today so I am going to rolly rolly ice bottle it this evening.

Big bowl of veggies with a smidge of pasta mixed in along with a tomato basil veggie patty for dinner...feeling kinda bloaty...been off my regular WOE game the past couple of days...time to get back on THAT too...

Went online today to print out my schedule for June, and the message was that my maximum number of miles was being 'halted' and the suggestion was to add another day of running...since I had it at 5 days of running, I bumped it up to 6.  Though my Saturday runs are now at 15, running 5-6 on Sundays may be kinda tough but was suggested I tackle it much like I did the run every day in May thing and run on Sundays as my legs would allow so as not to bring on an injury as I embark on 'official' Chicago marathon training starting this Saturday.

Fridays will be my official rest day.

yeah...i am going to miss the 2 days of rest (before and after long run), but I need to get my weekly mileage up and thats the only way to do it; i am not going to run more than 5-6 miles a day on the other days; except for wednesdays when they go up to 8 miles for that day only...

didnt finish my thought...what i am saying is that 5-6 miles per day is my max man...especially here in the Summer you know? if i could run faster it wouldnt be that big of a deal :) so to get the extra mileage addign a day of running was the only option!
