Well it looks like plans are going to change for the month. I was hoping to get a few races in, but I’m nowhere near the shape that I was hoping to be in. I guess taking a week off and filling miles in with beer drinking will do that to you.
Not really sure what my July plans will be, but looks like Rice Street mile is definitely off (was going to try for sub-5:00) and most likely the …

Well since my one marathon is over for the year, I should probably try and come up with some sort of new plans for the year.
I really can’t wait for my legs to come back from the vacation they’re on. I ran yesterday morning and won’t run again until tonight. Usually they come back pretty quickly, but after Sunday’s stupidity, they might stay away for awhile. I’m still pretty sore from lifting. Blah.
Hmmm. Let’s see where can I …
