Should've gone to the pool this morning but the mess of it didn't appeal to me... so I went to the gym. Did 12 minutes on elliptical and 12 minutes on stationary bike - both at low resistance. Leg didn't hurt - but it hurt on the mile walk to the office... It's still inflamed, it's like a bump on top of the ankle bone. Then did some core work, pull-ups and triceps-ups (not sure what those are called). The stupid metro was delayed and I was 20 minutes late getting there, so I couldn't do more than 30 minutes. But it's better than nothing.

Will is taking me to my favorite restaurant tonight for Restaurant Week, when twice a year the upscale restaurants in the city offer deals for us people that don't make a lot of money... looking forward to eating lots of great food!

Sorry to hear about the injury, hopefully you can recover soon to build on the success of your recent race. Resting it is a good idea.

Have fun splurging on the upscale food!

Good work out... I need to do other things besides just running. I think it's a good idea to rest your injury if it's buggin.

Enjoy all the good eats!

Thanks guys - my boyfriend got food poisoning from something he ate at lunch so no fun dinner for us :(

Lucia! I missed that you hurt your ankle, or at aleast, I don't remember. I'm so sad. And now I'm even more sad that your boyfriend was super sick and you weren't able to enjoy Restraunt Week (they need to do that down here). :o( I hope today goes better.

I am so sorry about the pain AGAIN! What on earth is going on? You need to move to Utah, our roads are not as dangerous or something! Dang it, we need you to be fixed, it is not fair for one person to shoulder the majority of the injuries alone!

I was wondering just last night how your restaurant week was going. Was it all so good? What did you get to try?

What's your favorite restaurant? Mine would be one where you could have burritos and pasta and brownies and french fries in one combo plate.
