Boy, that's gotta suck

Another gorgeous weather weekend in Chicago without a cloud in the sky Saturday or Sunday. Unfortunately, the skies are not as clear everywhere as you are probably all to aware. Imagine that you've trained, potentially for years, to run in the Boston Marathon, but when it comes time to head to Boston, you get stuck in the airport because a volcano in Iceland erupts. How crazy awful!!

All eight playoff hockey series went to one game a piece after two games. That means that the home team lost the home ice advantage in every single series! Insane! Washington, the #1 team in the East and The President Trophy winner for having the best record in the regular season, had to come back three times before they could get the win in OT against the #8 seeded Candiens who only got into the playoffs by the skin of their teeth. What an exciting game!

So this weekend I tried to enjoy the sun as much as possible, despite the somewhat chilly temps and went to the gym both days. My new plan is to take one day off, go to therapy two days a week, lift weights at least twice and run three days. So some PT days I might lift or I might run. Depends on how it goes. The good news? Monday looks like the best day to take off!!
