Huntsville:  It was cool this morning (44) but not windy so actually felt really good.  I just did another easy run today.  Since I ran so late last night and was running early this morning I didn't want to over do it so kept it to 6 miles.  I felt pretty good for the most part but did still feel some fatigue in my legs.  I really tired to keep it slow to continue the recovery mode.  I plan on taking it easy all this week and then getting back into training mode next week.  I need to start making some plans for what I am going to do next.  Without plans I usually fall off in my training so need to keep some targets out there to shot for.  Any ideas?

Where do you run when you're in HSV? Up and down Madison Blvd? Even early in the morning I bet that is quite busy with traffic!

KP, I usually run on the Intergraph campus so watch out when you are coming in in the morning and don't run over me! Ha!

Jeff, you have any recommendations?

I ran the campus yesterday at lunch. I hate it! It is nice and flat, but no scenery. I need something to look at to keep my interest when running alone.

Good to see you today. Thanks for stopping by! The other ladies (Judy and Priscilla) were mad that I didn't introduce you to them since they "know" you too! Ha! Whoops...

Kristen, it was nice to meeet you and please tell Judy and Priscilla I'm sorry I should have introduced myself to them as well. I will swing by next time and say hello to them as well.
