Had to hit the mill, I really hate the treadmills at our new gym - they seem really hard.  I think the sidewalks are softer!  Didn't do all the running I planned to, finished up on the elliptical.  Worked hard though!

Gym in a different location has better treadmills, great run followed up by some tough strength training.  Long session at the gym...got hit on to!  :-)

Home workout. Discovered Crow Push-ups...ow!  The Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 DVD is actually variations on a lot of good, basic training.  Lunges, push-ups, squats, planks, etc.  You know, the stuff that really works!  And I like her workout plan of 3-2-1.  3 min of strength, 2 min of cardio, 1 min of abs.  In case anyone was curious....

Easy run on icy, snow packed sidewalks.  Surprisingly fun!
