boy am I tired

I am glad tomorrow is a full rest day.

I did my 3 miles this morning around 5:30 and again it was lovely. I need to find a nicer route tho as the one I've been running forever is getting pretty boring. It's an out-and-back along a bike path that runs along a pretty major road, so while it's a good safe path (plenty of room between me and cars and good lighting and plenty of spectators) it's also BORING. Saw the great-blue heron again, tho he didn't take off overhead this time... also heard what could have been his/her offspring making some really WILD low, honks from the bushes.

I'm a bit sore from yoga yesterday. It was a great class tho and I've retained more flexibility than I'd thought. My legs were shaking during some of the asanas tho, so I know they're a bit tired. I've run 6 miles so far this week and there are 8 in the plan for this weekend (3 sat, 5 sun). Next week marks a pretty large jump in milage tho as I'll be adding a short 2 miler on wednesday before yoga and the long run on sunday goes up to 6.

I'm thinking I might pick up some glucosamine (to add to all my OTHER supplements) this weekend because while my knees don't hurt now... I imagine they may start in a couple of weeks.

Must remember to stretch after running... legs today are stiff (not sore, just stiff). *sigh*

I suppose I should eat some lunch now, so I'll catch y'all later.
