Elliptical and treadmill - 40:00

20 minutes on the elliptical and 20 minutes on the treadmill, mostly walking, but with 6 x 1:00 jogging segments at about 11:30/mile pace. Ankle felt perfectly fine.

2 months without much exercise, except for some upper body weights and light recumbent cylcing.

5 min elliptical + 25 minutes hard weights

At the gym next to the hotel in San Diego. The hotel gym was actually a MMA center. I was a little out of place but tried my best.

About the same as yesterday. A little soreness but nothing too major. Averaged about 8:45/mile. Great to be out in the sun.
