Just said no to running again. I did, however, get to sit at work until 8 pm (still sitting) doing parent-teacher conferences.

I was going to squeeze in a little run after my 3rd period class and before parent-teacher conferences but ended up having to write a couple letters of reccomendation. Maybe I'll try to squeeze in a little run around 8 pm when I get home. 

Feeling pretty good but still a little sore. I've got a 4 day weekend so I'm hoping to get some quality runs in.

"The FRB is dead" I keep reading. For me it's more about whether this is still a good place to keep track of my workouts. I think it is so I'll keep blogging here as long as running remains important to me. So pretty much forever.

4+ laps around Liberty Park.

6 striders. It's been a while since I did any striders or worked on any speed development and it showed.

1 more lap around Liberty Park.

PM: Walked to the gym. Lifted weights and did a million sit-ups. Walked to Whole Foods, got a cup of coffee and read a book, walked home via Sugar House Park.
