| | Day #29. I'm sick, sore throat, its the worst. Haven't gotten a decent night's sleep since Monday either. 13 minutes on the elliptical, then 1 hour Centergy with Lisa (she dominates!). Later 45 minutes of tennis with Justin - it was majorly half-hearted and crappy since I felt so terrible and only went because my captain made me. Was supposed to run today, hope I can make it up tomorrow. I'm so behind in work/school after that trip.

| | Day #30 - I made it! I certainly wouldn't have worked out today if I didn't want that 30. Walked 3.7 miles on the TM, ran .5 miles (running hurts my throat). Felt awful all day today, but maybe I'm on the mend, I hope so. |

| | Such a long busy neverending day, and there's more of them coming. I can't wait until Friday night! Ran 3 miles at the gym track around 9pm, 1 minute walk breaks after each mile, then some weights. Still far from 100% but I actually felt like a human being today which was a relief. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be back to normal. |

| | Another ridiculously long day. On the TM at 10pm, just did enough to count it as a work-out day. 2 miles running, 1.25 miles walking, 3.25 total. |

| | Day #33. 40 minutes on the elliptical at the gym while watching Community (definitely not my favorite episode). Intervals of difficulty 5-10 1 minute each x 6. Everyone think good thoughts for me tomorrow at 10:30am - its my big presentation! |

SUCCESS! I successfully presented my R&I and I think it went pretty well! Thanks everyone for the good thoughts! Afterwards I rewarded myself with a mid-day run on Burke-Gilman trail, 5.5 miles, walk breaks after 2, 4, and 5. Maybe it was the distance, maybe it extending the time between walk breaks, but I got sniped, and it made me very disheartened. Knee started acting up from 4-5.5 and especially right at the end. Made me sad because I'd been feeling so good lately. I hope that this is just the ITB getting used to this amount of stress and doesn't mean I'm going back to the beginning. Celebratory dinner with Jordanne and Justin, then decided it would be fun to swim so I did 21 laps (1,050 yards) at the pool with Justin, sat in the hot tub and sauna, lovely.
