Rode my stationary bike for 50 minutes then did arm, back, leg weights. It was such a nice morning I was tempted to run but I am going to do intervals tomorrow and I have learned from experience that I need to give my legs a rest. I am envious of everyone that can run everyday but my right hip needs a break. Although there are great benefits to cross training. I have increased my running time by strength training and riding the bike hard. And you know what they say about women over 30 and losing muscle mass. There was a great article in Runners World about running through the ages.

I may be riding the bike again tonight to work off some cheesecake. My husband and a couple friends (one used to live in New York City) got together and ordered a 10lb cheesecake from a New York City deli monday afternoon. Then it was shipped fed ex. overnight. I had some last night. OH my gosh!! Never have you tasted such fantastic cheesecake. That will be my new reward for interval training tomorrow.

Have a great day!! Happy running.
