Actually made it out the door for a run today. The baby doesn't like running too much anymore. But, it felt really good to get out and do it. I felt a lot better after about 20 minutes of running. I ran 4800S to the River Trail. It felt like the run was taking forever, so I am definitely getting slower.
When I got home, I found Cole and Lily playing nicely together with Cole's superhero guys. I wish parenting could always be that easy! |

My running days may be numbered. I ran on the treadmill, and started experiencing shooting pains through my belly. I only made it 20 minutes. The baby is getting heavy, too. I may try one more run tomorrow, but it could be full cross training from here on out.
After my running attempt, I came home and rode for 40 minutes on the spinning bike. |

| No running again. I did an "interval workout" on the elliptical . . . 2 minutes on, 2 minutes off, 10 sets. Then, I rode the stationary bike on the random setting, starting at level 5 and increasing every five minutes. 72 minutes total workout. I was reading "The Mark of Athena", but it gets a little difficult to read when I have to concentrate to get through those last few intervals. Can I just say, "I love my kindle"? | Add Comment |

I arrived at the gym to the unusual sight of a man changing his clothes outside of his van in the parking lot. Does he live in his van? The van was plastered with about 8 26.2 stickers, a few 13.1 stickers, and a handful of stickers professing his love for his dog. At least he's a runner, right?
Then, inside the club, when I got on the cross trainer, I was treated to the sight of another gentleman's boxers as he worked out on the machine in front of me. It's either time for a new pair of gym shorts, or he needs to tighten that drawstring. I moved machines.
I did 30 minutes on the cross trainer, and then got really bored, so I thought I would try my hand at running again. It felt much better than a few days ago. I think being warmed up helped a lot. I ran for 35 minutes, and managed 4.54 miles in that time. I still feel very waddly, but no shooting pains today. |

| My achilles was sore after Saturday's run, which was a little strange. So, I kept it non-impact this morning. I did an interval workout on the spinning bike. I warmed up 15 minutes, and then did 12 sets of 3 minutes hard, 2 minutes easy. I did a straight speed ride, a hill climb, and jumps, and repeated that 4 times. Then, I cooled down until I hit 80 minutes of riding. | Add Comment |

| SLCC loop. I felt great. No baby pains. However, the stupid achilles tendon flared up again. Seriously, who gets hurt when they are not even really training for anything? Oh well. At least I have plenty of time to get it better. The downside is, I can't take ibuprofen. Of course, that means I can't mask the pain, so that's good. |
