Stroller pushin in Texas

Pain is still there in the left femur area.  I am going to a specialist today to check out what might be the problem.  I just want this thing to heal, and I am going to live to what the doc tells me to do by the "T." 

1 hour spinning

20 minutes on elliptical

I'm ready to be back out and running.  I feel like a fatty! 

I went back to the gym for an hour spin class!  Lovin' the spin.

So yesterday wasn't the best of days.  First I went to the specialist.  They took an Xray, and they did not find anything.  They want me to do a bone scam test.  My leg is feeling so much better already, so I am going to give it time.  I'm going to continue to Xtrain until I feel 100% ready to do small mileage increments. 

I did not make it into the St. George marathon.  I am pretty bumbed about it.  I really wanted to use that race a PR course.  Hmmmm, I'm a little frustrated with that race.  Last year I didn't make it into the lottery either, but somehow I found a way to run it... I don't think I will be as lucky this year.  Back to TOU?  ew. 

Today I spent an hour in the weight room strengthening my upper body.  I will go back later to spin! 

So I was looking on the SGM website at the charity programs.  For only $750 I can run the dang thing!  Yeah right.  Like I have that kind of money.

1 hour spinning class.  Man, spinning is my new "thing."  I might be in the process of being converted from running.  No, that would never happen.

26 laps in the pool. 

Spinning class

60 minutes spinning

30 minutes weight training.

This morninig in the weight room there was only this guy and myself.  We were sitting by each other lifting, and he kept making the strangest grumbling noises.  It sounded like he was in pain.  I tried to ignore him and just go on with my workout.  Then he was like, "Aw, my leg has a cramp!"  I didn't know what to do, so I just looked at him and smiled.  When I was leaving the weight room he proceeded to tell me good job for my efforts.  Guys on weights are strange. 

I woke up really early this morning and decided I would dedicate a big workout to those running the Ogden Marathon.  I am a little upset that there is no way I will be able to run by next week.  My leg still needs time.

1 hour spinning class

50 minutes moderate effort on elliptical

20 minutes core workout out

33 laps in the pool.  I decided I would do 26 laps continually without stopping (one lap representing 1 mile of the marathon).  I continued onto 33 laps without stopping because I felt so good. .50 swimming was less than 30 minutes. 

I hope everyone had a good race today.  Weather was really warm, I hope no one died like I did last year.
