Had a nice day. Lectured on the wonders that is SRAM, DRAM, and ROM. Oh, I know. You're jealous. You just WISH you could listen to my fascinating lectures!

After work I zipped into Trader Joes to get some 0% Greek yogurt, cereal, biscotti, and fat free ginger dressing. I love Trader Joes! Got cracked. My chiro pointed out that, once again, I came back from the marathon with my back in better condition than when I left. Isn't that odd? I was really bad last week. So much so that he changed what he was doing because my muscles were so tight. I go and run 26 miles and I feel better than I've felt in months...well, weeks. Better than I felt since I ran 28.5 miles the weekend of the Portland marathon. I think the symmetry of running must "force" everything in my hips back into alignment. That's my theory, at least. I'm probably just talking out of my buttocks.

Dropped the car off with Roy and ran home. Legs actually felt heavier than yesterday, although it was still a pretty good run. I forget how much I love running in the Fall. It's just cool enough not to necessarily need to bundle up, but you can crack out the ear muffs and gloves and not feel odd. I love the smell of the wood stoves and the sights of the leaves on the trees. Just a very nice, relaxing experience.

Went out to dinner with Lisa to Mo's BBQ. Why am I having such a hard time just saying "You ran a marathon on Sunday and left with 1800 calories UNDER at the end of the day. Indulge a little!"? I just see the bar turning red and I freak out!

I think I'll go to bed early tonight. Plan for tomorrow is to get to the gym for weights in the am. After work I'll run to the Mall where Roy will pick me up and take me to the Billy Joel concert! Woo hoo!
