No better way to start off the week than a strenuous climb up Flagstaff Mountain.  I decided to ride my mt. bike since the handle bars are a little higher than my road bike and my shoulder gets super achy on my road bike. Shoulder felt great and hip was okay too.

I'm listening to this awesome talk right now and its giving me a happier outlook. 

My favorite points he made: 

"Many of you are endlessly compassionate with the weaknesses of others.  Please remember to be compassionate with yourself."  

"Forget not to be happy NOW...you need not wait for a 'golden ticket' to be happy."

"If we spend our days waiting for fabulous roses, we could miss the beauty and wonder of the tiny forget-me-nots that are all around us.  Never stop stiving for the best that is within you.  But don't close your eyes and hearts to the simple and elegant beauties of each days ordinary moments that make up a rich, well-lived life." 

-Dieter F. Uchtdorf

90 minutes on the elliptical plus 2X5 minutes of running.  My hip felt a little bit better while running today than it did last week.  Yay for progress!

Another trip up Flagstaff mountain this time on my road bike.  My shoulder is not very happy with me but my body is.  

Good news!  My hip is not aggravated from the one mile of running yesterday which means I can try to bump it up a little more tomorrow!!  I may just DOUBLE my mileage this week from last week.

Ran one mile!!!  Wanted to go longer but resisted the urge.  Ahh, I love running.

Then I rode my bike to the gym, pool ran for 30 minutes, and rode back home.

Listened to lots of great talks today for LDS General Conference.  I love this weekend!  So many uplifting thoughts and reminders.
