Flip-flopped the schedule since I have been keeping late hours at the theatre during the opening weekend of  Little Shop of Horrors. Today was originally scheduled for a 7 mile long run but there was no way that was going to happen. As it was I had to stop twice in the 4 mile run to let my stomach settle down.
