After yesterday's off day, I was disappointed that my legs were a little sore this morning and my left IT band was slightly achy. I suspect those are the effects of Saturday's run AND not getting proper rest over the weekend. I ended up working at the house last night until 1:30 AM. Two calls at home from the CFO over the weekend will do that! Hopefully this equity offering goes out in a couple days then I can focus on other things.

I decided to hold this week's running constant while figuring out what's in store for me at physical therapy. My first "real" therapy day is tomorrow then I'm back in on Thursday. I would love it if Dani reveals the "holy grail" to me. Unfortunately, I'm doubtful it will be that easy.

Six miles tomorrow at an easy pace. Today's forecast is for temperatures close to 100 and high humidity. In contrast, this morning's run was quite pleasant ... a little cooler than usual.
