I did 20 minutes strength this morning (shred).  Decided to do my 3 miles tomorrow because I slept in until 7am and couldn't get motivated until 8am.  I felt like I didn't have enough time to run and get ready for my new Sleep Number bed delivery at 9am.

My plan is to do 3 easy miles tomorrow, then a long run on Saturday.

I'm hoping the new bed will produce a couple of great nights of sleep and supercharge me for the long run on Saturday.  (Don't worry RAD, your day will come again when you get to sleep, just not yet.)

Maybe I'll come try your sleep number bed :)

I've never done the shred, but I understand it is a CRAZY hard workout!! Good luck with the running plan for the next couple days.

oohhhh...new beds are so nice!

" I dreamed I was sleeping on billowy billows of satin and marshmallow stuffed pillows."-

your running plan sounds good. I'm going to try for a longer run on Saturday too, but it's supposed to be like the hotest day ever of the year.

enjoy your rest Briar Rose!

okay Terri-- it's 920 and I haven't heard about your fabulous new-bed induced sleep or your 3 mile run.

inquiring minds want to know!!
