Quick idea of the day: to fit long runs into the weekdays, run 1/2 at night - 1/2 the next morning.
- PROs: minimize time/exghustion to single evening, similar leg fatigue without compelte boredom on a treadmill
- CONs: fatigue extreme :-p for the next work day without prep work completed (?)
What do yall think? :-)

The past two Sundays have been workout days - amazingly enough it felt fantastic to kick my booty on that day... and then not be able to walk for at least 2 days without making a noise while getting up. Going back for a second 1-day session didn't make sense but better than nothing, right?
WELL today I wasn't impossibly sore so I took advantage of it and ran the 2 miles to the gym, stretched & abs for a few - still heaving from the 96 degree heat BUT peeved I wasn't burning a ton of calories -> I decided to row 10km. Whew - I bit off more than I could chew so I stopped at 5km...(26:03) my booty was numb and calves were killing me. Am I rowing correctly?! :-/ Then ran the 2 miles back (with the prize of Smoothie King!).
Anyone want to take bets on how sore I'll be tomorrow? :-p I hope to do the "Sunday" workout below again tomorrow :-D YAY for getting legs and booty back!!
