Ran the Litchfield Road Race course with my two oldest daughters in 1:02:30.  Went to the gym and did weights + 3.5 miles on the TM to top my mileage from last week. 

Haven't weighed myself in a while...was a little fearful to do so and found it at a 4 year high- 192lbs.  Plan to return to better eating habits and continue to creep up in mileage.  Hope to be back in the low 180's by June and mid-to high 170's by marathon season.
