After a long hiatus, I am adding regular runs back into my life! I have registered for all 3 of NYRR's March races, with the possibility of a February race in there as well. In addition, I've Post-it noted some evening runs with a friend here in NYC for next week.
Now that my work day extends past 8pm, the plan is to squeeze some quality (and distance) runs into my day - at least until the work pile becomes unbearable. Hopefully I'll be able to get a weekday morning run in there as well. Fingers crossed, the game plan is as follows:

- CF/Lift 6x a week, following the main site 3 on, 1 off.
- Supplement with at least 2 weekday evening runs, and perhaps 1 morning run.
- Race or run one morning per weekend, preferably not on a CF/Lift day.
- Rest one day per week. Completely.
I'm not sure how realistic this is, as I'll soon be working 7 days a week. But if I keep the runs short and quality - I am optomistic. And flexible. Most importantly, I'm excited to see how all the increased lower body power will influence my race times (not to mention the fact that I am not overtraining and running superfulous mileage).
Ahem.
I'm going to keep saying that to myself, in order to silence the mileage whore (who is currently kicking and screaming) inside my brain.
