one mile swim

20 minutes elliptical

I often get a little cold/congested after swimming. Happened again. But loved being in the water. I need to make more time to swim. The core stretch and vertebral decompression outweighs the inconvenience. I need to remember this!

Back extensors strength training.

70 minutes elliptical

2 miles @ 8:41 Improvement in B LE. Pn 3/10 which did not increase or decrease. Could have run more but wanted to try and run again the next day.  

Was it the two very easy days?

Was it the stretching and decompression that resulted from the swim yesterday?

30 minutes elliptical

9 treadmill miles, AP 8:26 

Definitely seeing improvement. Pn B LE still 3/10. Did not increase or decrease with run except when I tried to increase my speed. 8:30s seems to be most comfortable, which is far better than not running at all. As long as the pn stays at this level I think I will be able to cross the finish line at SGM. I am still worried about the distance and downhill. Will my elliptical cardio be enough to carry me through 26.2 running miles. Before Boston 2010 I did a lot of pool running, I did not do that this time. However, pn does not seem as significant as it did before Boston 2010. It'll be interesting. :)

No additional pn or swelling later in the evening or following morning. Alternated ice and heat a couple of times throughout the day. Ice seems to help with the swelling, heat seems to help with the tightness and pn.  

Core strength training.
