All easy in 80+ degree heat. High humidity. 8:40avg pace. Stopped and drank water a few times. Its kind of nice to just trot along with no times to hit or anything...

40 mins elliptical, (10 mins easy, 6x2 min hard intervals, with 1 min recoveries, 10 mins easy)

20 mins stair master

 I've noticed that I feel a lot more balanced if I switch up cross training machines rather than doing all XT on one machine. I feel like doing that promotes strength in certain areas (on the elliptical I use my quads a lot) that then can lead to imbalances in other areas for running.
