9 miles -- all very nice and slow except for the 6 800s I threw in the middle.

A 400 m SLOW jog (11 minute pace) in between each 800. Paces for the 800s: 3:30, 3:30, 3:25, 3:25, 3:20, 3:20.

Core/lumbar stabilization exercises. 

I am pleased with how well my leg is doing. There has not been any pain and/or discomfort while running, walking, hopping, etc. for a couple of weeks now. Still is tender when I press and prod right on the exact tiny spot where the SF was though. I need to stop doing that. But I get so stinkin' curious!!!! ;)

Haven't found my mountain bike yet, and still can't believe how expensive some of them are. I keep waiting for a killer deal to present itself, but I am thinking I may just have to bite the bullet and settle for a fair deal and customer service with a smile! :)

VERY NICE 800s repeats! Looks like you are fully healed...just quit poking at the SF site! :) :) :) Great ST exercises too!

You know what you want. Just pull the trigger already! Ry will be happy you do! :)

Teena, you can't say nice and slow and then throw in 6 x 800 at 5 k pace in there. Most of us call that speed work. Great job!!!!

Yay, Teena! (I've been away for a while, and you've gotten past the leg pains. So glad for you!) Maybe I should stay away longer.:)

Two suggestions on great prices on bikes: ebay and ksl.com. I have purchased and sold several bikes over the years on ebay (mtn, road and tt bikes). I never buy new (usually 1 to 2 years old) and buy them at 50% to 70% less than original retail. Its been worth it for me, I've saved tons. If you want to ride the bike prior to purchasing go to the local bike shop and test ride a few models than find the same model (or last years equivalent) on ebay. Good luck.

SSF~

Yes, I know which bike I want ... just not sure I can justify the price. :)

Rhett~

It was speed work for me!!! BUT the rest of the miles were SUPER easy. :)

Tim~

Thanks!!! :)

Marc~

HI!!! :) :) :) !!! :) :) :) !!!

Lyman~

Excellent suggestions! I have actually been watching both of those. Sadly, I haven't seen the bike I want come up. The bike that I have fallen in love with is the Specialized Myka FSR Elite (size small, of course). :)
