3 nice and easy miles with Sophers on the JRP, AP 9:24 Then Sherm and Livvy joined Sophia and I for one additional mile in the neighborhood, AP 10:11. 45 minutes elliptical. Wanted to run more but I could tell that the niggle in my R calf is not improving. I know that if I don't take care of small things like this quickly that they can easily turn into big things. So I will likely be cross-training the next 2-3 days IF I can keep myself from running with Sophia in the morning. I can't even begin to describe how much I enjoy our mornings together. It was actually beneficial to be on the elliptical because it gave me enough time to go through my doctoral project presentation again before presenting it for the first time (a practice trial in front of a few classmates and the professor who is my doctoral project chair) a couple of hours later. I was very happy with how the practice trial went. IT FEELS AWESOME TO HAVE THAT DONE!!!! A few more touch-ups and then my official presentation and 30 - 45 minutes of fielding a volley of questions from the faculty on September 4th!!! Can hardly believe it! :) Happy Monday, All. :) |
