The way I feel right now, I will need an off day tomorrow to try to heal up some and I am trying to tamp down the guilt by reminding myself that I’ve done enough miles in the past 9 days to carry me to the end of the month…but, I would like to get to the goal of 500 miles for a month for the first time so that means more 30’s to make that happen…yeah, I know…I’m an idiot…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
