4 miles on the rail trail.  Beautiful sunny morning after a weekend of rain.  Did some tempo work,  mile warm-up then picked up the pace and recovered as needed.  Kept thinking..."gotta run faster to run faster":)

Went to "chisel" class at the gym after running.  Worked on push-ups:)  Haven't done a real one yet.  I like using the weights for my upper body and the core work.   I felt stronger on my run this morning after only 4 of the classes.

Spin class this morning.  Good class.  My right knee ached a little but eased up when I changed my angle of pressure.  

Went to "Muscle Up" class this evening.  It was a half hour of weights, crunches, push-ups, etc.   Then went home and cut the grass.

Progressive run this morning.  My Garmin is still DOA so used a stopwatch between mile markers.  Pace:  10:30, 9:30, 9:04.  I can't wait to get my Garmin fixed because I think that mile between the markers must be more than a mile...sure felt like it :)

Started Grad school this evening...getter' done!

Spin class this morning.  Sometimes my instructor drives me crazy.  Especially when you finally push through a hard song then he hits repeat and you have to do it all over again...NNOOOOO!
