PM: easy miles.  Over ate again today at bridge conference in Indy today.  My profession as a civil engineer binds me to sitting all day and eating bad food.  Its difficult to break free and/or avoid...

Sluggish and bloated feeling tonight - 5.11 mi. w/ 8x200m strides - 41:17

Later PM - did a solid strength training routine - about 20 minutes of switching between leg and core exercises
