Scheduled Miles: 3
Actual Miles:2
RPE:4
Comments: Wow! I can't believe what a breeze it was to run two miles. I only did two because I didn't make it to the gym until 8:40, so I only had 20 minutes. Kate was really sick today, so I didn't want to take her out....especially to a day care, which is where she probably caught the bug in the first place. I'm not sure if I should try to make up miles I miss. I could do an extra run this week, even if it is a short 2 or 3 miler. Hmmm, I wonder what is the best thing to do in this scenario. Any suggestions?
Running is already making a difference in my life. I feel more in control. More powerful. Healthier. The psychological benefits are enough to keep me going, but I know the physical benefits will start showing soon too! :D

don't you hate the whole sick kid thing? it always throws off my workout routine. our baby is sick, so i can pretty much kiss this weeks workouts goodbye!! and i am sure yours got hers from the kids club, mine always do! that seems to be the cycle--you keep them away from the kids club while they are sick. once they are better you take them back only to have them get sick again! arrrghh!!
as for the missed miles, i would probably just stay with the schedule. i wouldn't do a make-up run because that would mean you would be missing a rest day. your body needs the rest. you will just wear yourself out and make the other runs that much more difficult. but what do i know!! haha!
