I rode the stationary bike on friday until I was a sweaty mess (about an hour). I was busy watching Alias. I never watch tv so that was a treat. Saturday I ran with Cath and her sister in law up the Canyon. The sister in law (who just had a baby 9 weeks ago) ran pretty well, but needed to slow down a bit. So Catherine and I ran at a pretty good clip without stopping for a few miles. Only a little pain in the hip after a tiny pit stop as I was trying to catch back up to Catherine. One week without Physical Therapy, but I'm still spending 15 mintues both morning and night (30 minutes total) doing the stretching. Overall, my back, hip, and hamstring are coming along. Today was lovely and windless up the canyon. I love these cold, cloudless, blue skied November mornings. The leaves have mostly fallen and there is that feeling of lonely desolation.....that time of year thou mayest in me behold. |
