Nia was craaaaaaazy. But it was very stress relieving to do silly hippie yoga tribal dancing haha. I did a little 20 min strength workout after for good measure.

Goooood class - I feel dead in a good way. I'm continually amazed at how much more awesome of a biker I am than a runner. Amy K's classes are bomb - she has good music (not just top 40 pop) and int... read more

blah AFC track 2.6 mi 00:35 13:27 pace
Ran 2 miles, walked the rest interspersed. My left knee was twinging so I stopped earlier than my goal of 3 miles today. Frustrated. Hopefully this doesn't last - figured I was better safe than sorry.

alright Shamrock/Cherry/JPA hospital ... 2.55 mi
Running against the wind most of the run and hills were hard! Ack! Cherry kills me. I don't think it's too bad until that one hill...you know the one. But, I made it, slowly but surely!

Great Performance:
Cherry does suck. I stay away at all costs. There's no shame in planning out less hilly runs :) Way to push through!

Nice Job:
Yep, Cherry is sadistic. With today's headwind it's down right demoralizing. I run that route every time I want a gut-check. Way to keep with it.

Good job! The more hills you practice on, the easier flatter routes seem! :)

good 75 minute Spin with Julie/AmyK 22.5 mi 01:15 18.0mph pace

You are definitely better safe than sorry (as someone who did not listen to myself last year)... good to stop for the day and get back at it when it feels better.
