Beautiful day today, too bad I had to run on the TM.  I was home with my two youngest while my wife took my daugther to dance so it was TM or nothing.  I got in 7 miles and my muscles got a little tight.  I'm still a little sore from last Saturday's race.  I felt great Sunday, but the r-calf and l-hamstring are a little wounded.  I am struggling a bit with allergies today as well, my breathing was labored more then usual but oh well.  I'm taking this week a little easier then last.  I am going for a 22 miler on Saturday so I want to get rested up.  It will only be my third 20+ mile run.  I'm excited but a little nervous.  I have only 8 weeks left until Utah Valley Marathon.  I am hopefull that I will be smart and be able to train injury free.  I have a tendency to always push myself harder then I should and I tend to over do it.  I need to stay smart and listen to those who have done this before.  Thanks to all you bloggers whom I have read your stories and learned from.
