Too tired to run.. or move.. gimme some pizza.[/caption]So, here we are past the hump day and on the down ward slide to the weekend. (Yay Weekend!!!!!!!) I am afraid that I have to admit something. Despite the best of intentions, I didn't get back to running until Weds. While this may not seem like a big deal - it means that I took FOUR Days off in a row.

I started talking myself into maybe doing 3 miles instead of 2.. After all, 3 isn't that far - right?
