Notes

I just got back from the Illinois High School State Track meet last Saturday. School is almost out and the Tom Schlegel 5K is this Saturday. I had high hopes for training for this one and really going for it, but that went down the drain when the realities of a 3rd baby is here. The energy level is out the door when taking care of 3 kids under 3 years of age. My sister-in-law, Tracy, just ran the San Diego Rock-n-Roll Marathon and she did awesome. Her goal was to try to come in sub 4hrs, but she smashed that by crossing the line at 3:42. This gave me new motivaiton and insparation for my training for Chicago 2009. My run today was easy paced. I was just planning to run to Wal-greens to return some Rexbox movies before 9PM so I woundn't get charged another night, but after 2 miles I felt good and loose so I just ran my "Mall Loop" that turned out to be a little over 7.3 miles. By the end my knees were getting a little sore, but still felt good. But my quads were feeling a little heavy. It was an over all good easy run.
