Today I did an extended golf course loop, nice run and nice day. Legs were feeling a bit more tired today, I think do to the longer hours at work. Up way to early and to bed way to late. Just got to get through the big push at work for the end of the year. I did do some crunches and hit the big blue roller after.

I did'nt have to go to work this morn was able to sleep in. The first 8hrs of sleep I have had in months, did feel good for a change.

For my long run this morn I ran out over harry's hill then up to the trun-around on woodland hills rd. I ran over to loafer canyon rd. down to the canal rd and back home. My legs did kind of tired the last few miles, but for the most part it was a great run. take of tomorrow and start to hit it again on monday.

I just did not have the mojo today for my long run. I must still be fighting this cold a little bit, but the legs were just not there today. So I will lick my wounds and shoot for another day.
