Given my workouts are limited to Stairmaster and Elliptical, call it my march madness, i was keen to see how soon i will be reaching 100M mark on these two. Well, it was today. Reached 100M mark on SM after todays evening workout. Today was my longest time spent on those machines. I swear, its boring as hell. Spent close to 4 hrs at gym today, 90 mins stepper, 90 mins elliptical, 30 mins core & 30 mins whining! Felt completely drained. Having no choice i am forced to being religious at XT'ing. I am not sure what kind of benefits i will be reaping doing these miles. I will get to see it as i recover and start running.
Talking about good things, my resolution clock says i have 7 more days before i can pop open a drink. Wondering what should i have, vodka shots, beer..suggestions welcome.

You need to drink at my house this Saturday Mr!!!
Can you drag my hubby with you along for some x-training? Better then not:) Being famous for getting injured at least twice a year, I cross-trained numerous times and went on to run races from there. Is it better than running? Of course not. But it's better than not doing nothing at all. Keep at it.
BTW, Sirshasana really IS good for core. I remeber that once I realized it's all about abs, I was able to pull it off (or, rather, pull it up). It was a while back though. Try getting up without a wall, by the power of your core, from Downdog.
We'll go beer for beer on April 1st. I'll pick you up from Seton Hospital in the a.m.

What Olga doesn't understand is that I'm trying out a new 2 month taper plan for my next race. She's just pissed since I get to sleep in while she's up at 5am. :) Still undecided on whether or not I'm running ZG. I might end up being the designated beer man for the finish line. We'll see...
