I decided that today I wasn't going to attempt running at all. Instead I did 11 miles on the bike and 3 miles on the elliptical followed by some upper body weight stuff.


Not too bad if I do say, but one thing is kind of bothering me.. Why do the bike seats have to be so uncomfortable?? I swear I have never had my bottom hurt so bad!! Something to think about fixing somehow I suppose..

So as stated in the first entry on this blog, I've been training for some 5k races in the spring. After 2 bouts of th colds and finally getting into a routine, it seems like my training has to come to a halt.


I've been completing the Couch to 5k program which is an 8 week training program designed to get someone from never running to running a 5k in that period of time. Sounds like a great plan, huh? The first 3 weeks were a breeze and I never felt better. I had it all planned out.. Train for some 5k's and get my lungs and legs back in shape for snowboarding. No one told me how terrible shin splints would be though!!

You may be asking, what's the deal with Rephreshed?
