My right foot is slowly getting back to normal; however, I once again stuck to the elliptical machine today by knocking out 8.1 miles at an easy pace.  Depending on how my foot feels, I’m aiming to split up my workout between the elliptical and treadmill tomorrow.

Besides my 32.2-mile round trip on my bike to and from work, I was able to accomplish 300 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 60 (50 lbs) curls, and 20 (50 lbs) reverse curls for my non-running workout.

that's a lot of bike miles!

Nice job. My bike commute used to be a 35 mile round trip. Now it's only 5. :(

Thanks KP and Burt! Also, Burt I know the feeling; that is, just for my bike commute, I strangely wish I lived even further away from work. So having your bike commute reduced from 35 to 5 miles would be a bummer. Nice long bike rides in the morning get me ready to work!
