So, um, it's been a busy couple of weeks. I managed to survive the move and my final (and got an A in the class!), and still get five workouts in. (You should have seen me studying on the elliptical--it was a good time.)
I ended up not running at all during moving week to give my ankle a break, but I did discover the wonder of the elliptical machine in the process. I've always been a little wary of them because I wasn't sure I'm coordinated enough (I am) and because it always looks like the machine is doing most of the work when I watch other people (it's not). I love it.
I joined the Y out here on Monday, and I think it'll work out great. It's less than ten minutes away, and their weight machines are hooked up to this program called Fitlinx. You enter a PIN when you start your workout, and there are computers on the machines that keep track of your sets, reps, and weight. They also tell you where to set the seats and where the top and bottom of your range of motion are. It is SO cool.
Here's how this week looked/is looking...
Monday--moving recovery!
Tuesday--2 mile run, 25 min elliptical
Wednesday--hour swim
Thursday--6 mile run (outside! yay!)
Friday--elliptical, weights
Saturday--hour swim
Sunday--8 mile run
I have a couple of grilling adventures planned for this weekend (beer can chicken and flank steak with almond cilantro pesto). I'll keep you posted on whether they turn out.
