X-Train

Just a note: I run a lot more than I post on here, and I don't post all of my runs ...just as an FYI that I am much better at running/training every day than blogging about it :)


This week has demanded a lot of cross training. I am looking forward to (and daunted by) my 20-miler this weekend, and do not want my shins to hurt the way they did during the 16.5-miler, so I have been cross-training it up all week:


- The elliptical and I are BFF (best friends forever), especially when the gym is empty and I can ignore the 30 minute time limit

- The treadmill is a great mental workout for not wanting to keep putting one foot in front of the other. My newfound love for treadmills that I discovered before Spring Break has vanished.

- I am psyched that the gym installed Purell dispensers! I hate the way weights make your hands smell, and I am generally pretty skeeved out by gym germs.

- Abs/pushups/lifting. Wooo.
