No workout other than running around cheering my team at the cross country conference championship. With 10 teams in the league, both my girls and boys team placed 2nd overall, and we had 1 boy and 2 girls all-conference (top 6). Our fastest girl won every race this year in course record time, and she's just a 6th grader.

unfortunately, my Achilles has been hurting a lot more than normal the past few days. So today, I just did elliptical. I really want to fix this and start running again. Seeing some race photos from the Bear just made it that much more true.

elliptical. can't go in to work as they are doing construction. They actually closed the gym at work this week due to fumes from chemicals they are using on the ceiling. Hopefully I can be back in next week.

Elliptical with 3 min easy, 1 min hard. Better workout than just going moderate the whole time. Then run.
