Slept only from 7 to 11am.  Laid around hoping to fall back to sleep.  Didn't.  So I just decided to go for my run.  Got out at 12 noon.  Yup.  Heat of the day.  Wore my new danskin tank top (7 dollars walmart deal).   Dri release so awesome deal.  Anyway....ran 6.5 miles in 52:35 (8:05 pace).  Not bad for after my all nighter.  I am trying to get stronger running working nights by being more positive and strong through the headaches that hit from them.  It seems to be working.  I just hope to sleep five hours again like last Saturday.  That would give me more hope.  Anyway.....I think my report is done.  It was a nice quick run.  Last mile 7:22 pace.  The heat didn't bother me.  Not that it is near 100 degrees .....yet!!!  Plans to run 10 real easy tomorrow.  A short run on Thursday (5) and no run Friday (work wed. and thurs. night, it is a recurring phenomena).

it's so amazing the running you do with your schedule. working nights completely wiped me out, and i only did it for two weeks last Christmas. keep up the good work!

PS: here is a link to a pic of a lady doing planks. i also do it on the sides - left arm and right arm (works the obliques) basically it's just a stabilization exercise that works the deep core muscles. hold as long as possible and you will feel the burn! it really isn't fun, i am warning you! :)
