I got up and took my delta after my long ride and knee pain the day before. I knew I was run down solely by the fact that my legs ached when I walked up my back stairwell to get into my apartment!
Unfortunately, I received an email from my coach after I had already gotten up at 6:30am and gotten to the gym which suggested I take my delta and rest. Instead of doing the full two and 1/2 hour run, I did the the warm up and then continued for about 1.5 hours doing 5 minutes walk and 5 minutes run. I did test my delta and it was brutal.... 30 point spread from laying down to standing still!
Afterwards, I got cleaned up to go to brunch with the gals from Urban Innovations with whom I used to work. Kate met me in the Gold Coast and we drove to the South Loop and the new Brassiere LM restaurant. The company was much better than the food and service, but it was so fun to see my pals and sister in from New York City.
After lunch, Kate and I went to get mani/pedis and then drove to the suburbs to have dinner with our parents in Wheeling before she got on her plane back to Brooklyn. It was an incredibly long weekend and I crawled into bed around 7:45pm.
MB and I watched "The Newsroom" (well he watched the whole thing, I passed out) and called it a day!
