30 Minutes on the elliptical. Just for kicks I ran 0.1 miles on the treadmill at a 6mph pace. It felt great to run but aftewards, my hip and knee are a little sore -- very discouraging. I'm still going to run a 5k or two in October, I just don't know how I'm going to train for longer races if this doesn't heal. I may have to go to the doctor that Tracy and Christina told me about. For upper body work, I have the best thing -- 8 dumploads (120 yards) of steer manure on my front and back yards. It's really stinky but I try to spread about 3 yards per evening which really works my body. I should have about 2 months of such daily work to get it all spread out. The ammonia is really helping my respiratory too.
