Total Distance
8.60

Ran 5 miles in 35:16 this morning. I was surprised I was able to- since my back hurt all day yesterday from my speedy run on Saturday. I worked on the eliptical for 55 min as well. Lifted lot's of weights and did some abs. Hopefully do a longer run tomorrow.

**pm Update**  went for a run at 7:15 pm. Ran 3.60 in 26 min. That's all I could muster out tonight. My legs felt like bricks tonight. Yuck

Very nice workout! That is a fast 5 miles. Did you use the free weights? :) So machines aren't bad, but most serious lifters that are trying to build muscle use free weights. I'm not an expert, but a few of the muscle guys at the gym have been telling me to switch over to them exclusively. According to them the machines are better for getting a good cardio workout and keeping your tone, but not as good for building the muscle. One advantage to the machines is it is less likely that you will get hurt because they keep the weight balanced and stable. Just something to think about.
