Just have to put in about 8 miles tomorrow and then one more week of 40 miles, then a rest before the Marathon, and a week of rest after. Maybe not fully rest, but nothing over 10km. I just need to take it easy.<br \/>\nRight now my biggest concern is what to eat for dinner tonight. I feel like I&#8217;m going to end up just having another pizza tonight. Oh and some frittes. There&#8217;s a place in Bari, all they do is fries, it&#8217;s a chain place, they claim to be from Amsterdam, maybe they are. They have all these different sauces and mayonaises to put on the fries, and I gotta say, they&#8217;re good. I did the curry ketchup. Also on the food tip, I grabbed a slice of ricotta pie (pastiera di ricotta) today. It was grandpa&#8217;s favorite, apparently it&#8217;s a Pugliese thing. Which is cool, I like it too, I still prefer rice pie, but I&#8217;ll never turn down a ricotta pie either.<br \/>\nSo anyway, I took some great pictures today, but I also forgot the cable to connect my camera to the computer, so I&#8217;ll have to share when I get back to Somma. Doh!<br \/>\nThe only other thing today is that I realized tomorrow I hit 160 miles for the month, and if I keep on schedule to finish up this challenge, I&#8217;ll top 180 miles for the month! I think that&#8217;s pushing way too hard. I may actually do more than that and run on Monday morning as well, just to make the end of my week a little lighter. Trying to sort all this out. Alright, time to take a nap.<br \/>\nHave fun, keep running, and remember; If Gil can run then so can you!<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-876\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-876\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-reddit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-reddit sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=reddit\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Reddit\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" class=\"sharing-anchor sd-button share-more\"><span>More<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"sharing-hidden\"><div class=\"inner\" style=\"display: none;\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email this to a friend\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to email this to a friend (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-876\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-print\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-print sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to print\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to print (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-linkedin\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-linkedin-876\" class=\"share-linkedin sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=876&amp;share=linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on LinkedIn\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Got my run in today.
