Remained inside today with all the rain and Ligthening going on outside. I did 40 mintues on the elliptical and then I ran for 20 minutes on the treadmill for 2.25 miles. I finished up with some light upper body weight training.

See you tomorrow.

Out to Mini Gu and back again, it was hot and the run felt like it took forever but the pace didn't really reflect that as it was respectible. My average pace was 8:37 with a total time of 52:51. My legs just were not loose at all but hey I was able to get her done.

See you tomorrow.
