7:00 pm: 4 miles + elliptical

Hopped on the treadmill at UVU after class and started to run. Kept the pace low because my calf was still hurting a bit. After a couple of miles I noticed my shin was beginning to hurt as well so I called it after 4 miles and hopped on an elliptical for 20 min (2.61 miles) to lessen the load on my shin. Averaged an 8:55 mile on the treadmill. Didn't have a ton of time because I had a paper due. Lots of rolling and stretching when I got home. Hopefully tomorrow it will feel a bit better.

What's a better substitute for running when injured or trying to avoid an injury by taking off some load like I wanted to today: an elliptical or a stationary bike?
