Leisurely run around Millcreek and Holladay with the Sunday crew and then crosstraining and hip PT at the gym.  My hip gets tired when I run and then it gets tired doing my exercises.  Will it ever get stronger???  I don't really like PT.

With all of this talk of taking days off I decided to do just that.  Hopefully it will help me get out of this funk and my hip should appreciate the day of rest.

65 minute SPIN class then 5 easy miles on the TM.  I think spin is what has been missing from my life.  Great workout with several threshold intervals. 

Truth be told Jake was at the gym and he was running on the TM.  He wasn't wearing a singlet so I could barely recognize him.

Another day of hip strengthening.  I forgot to take my towel to the gym for the second day in a row.

Stairmaster.  I spent 30 minutes of the workout consciously pushing harder with my left leg.  You would think that should help my imbalance but I have yet to see measure results.

I got to the gym at 7:40 hoping there would still be spots for the 8 AM spin class. There were already 5 people on the waiting list so instead I ran 11 miles on the TM in my biking shorts and then I went to the step and strength class where I got to do lots of jumping, hopping, balancing and other contorted movements.  It's a good thing I was at the very back of the room because I was usually going the opposite direction of everyone else.  This will take some practice.
