| 60 mins pool running. 5 mins warmup, 9 x 5 mins hard, 1 min easy, 3 mins warm down.
While I know others say this is a good workout, I dont think its as good as elliptical or stairmaster, based on heart rate alone. I do think it targets more running specific muscles, and I can feel my legs get tired. Better than swimming at least. Im trying to do it at least 1-2 times a week, so I can mix up the cross-training, and not just get really awesome at ellipticalling (but lose strength in other running-specific ways).

| 65 mins elliptical. Mostly easy (~150bpm) + 15 mins ~160, last 5 mins 170bpm. Sort of a progression run?

| 40mins elliptical, ~160bpm.
Body weight leg circuit: 3x 30 sumo squats, 20 standing lunges with leg raise (each side), 20 dead lifts, 20 clam shells. Tried side step ups and they felt a little iffy on my hip.

| 65 mins easy elliptical
Core: 3 x 20 plank-to-push up position (not really sure what they're called, but they're a nice variation on the boring plan), 10 x crunches with swiss ball passing from feet to hands (not sure what these are called either, 20 x side-bendy things with 15lb dumbell (same again... you sort of just bend sideways. Works the obliques).

| And for something completely different... cross training on the elliptical!!!
65 mins easy.
11 days til I see the doctor again, to see whether I can start running. My hip is feeling better and better, but still not good enough to run on. Hoping there are some magical healing things that go on in the next 11 days. Just wanna run!!
