I was hurting pretty bad yesterday and wasn't really sure I should run today, but I told Ryan I would run with him and I hate no-showing.  I told him I needed to run slow, which also meant short since I needed to get done for 8:00am soccer games.  800mg of ibuprophen seemed to do the trick, felt OK but could definately feel it the entire run.  Kept it pretty slow, I could tell Ryan wanted to go faster but I kept holding him back.  Hey, he told me slow was probably a good thing for him too.

Glad I got a longish run in, I feel bad that I still haven't run over 20 miles this year and really think this is going to be bad come marathon day.

Here is my crazy work schedule for the next 2 months.

Monday, Bejing China for 2 weeks, come home for 1 night, fly to San Francisco for 4 days, home for 5 days then off to Rio Brazil for 1 week, come home for 1 week then Istanbul Turkey for 2 weeks, then 3 at home until UVM.  Schedule subject to change but that's what it's looking like now.  Pretty hard to train like that, but pretty neat to run in 4 different continents over the next 2 months.
