One week of rest and generally no running except for around cross country meets and my foot doesn't feel the slightest bit better. Maybe worse.

Knees feel better though. 

PM: Stairmaster workout

25 floor easy warm-up then some stretching.

453 floors in 60 minutes.

I walked over to Barnes and Noble after the gym and read The Little Red Book of Running by Scott Douglas. There is absolutely nothing in this book that I don't already know but I love reading it nonetheless. I think I'm going to buy several copies and give them out as awards after the cross country season.

One mile at practice this morning. Had the guys do a pretty hard workout at Cottonwood Complex this morning.

Enjoyed the rest of the day off. Went out to lunch with my lovely wife Ann and took Abby to a swim meet this evening at the South Davis Recreation Center. What a great facility! Makes me wish I lived in a city or county that was rich enough to afford such things.
