My body felt so tired when I woke up today. I have some mild shin splints so I decided just on cross training because I knew tomarrow my only choice is to run for my workout.

I did 5 miles on the elliptical in 51:00. Since I was not running I tried to keep a pace of 10 minute miles. 

I went and worked my abs. I have been doing an average of 450 crunches everyday for the last 4 weeks. No change? Sucks.

I did a few arm weights and one set of leg weights.

Then I went and rode 2 miles on the bike for a total of 10 minutes.

I felt like it  was a good workout.
