Frustration!!!

Today I was planning on using the elliptical machine but when I was in class having some work done on my leg again, my instructor said to take a day off from running. I told her that I haven't in a few days, but that I've been using the elliptical instead! She said that I shouldn't do that either! UGH! So she told me no faster than 3.0 on the speed, but I begged and she said that I could go no faster than 3.5. Which is a pretty good pace for walking but I could have still gone faster, and still only been walking. Anyway, so I walked for 3.1 miles today in 51 minutes, and then did some upper body strength conditioning. As you can guess this doesn't make me happy at all! I know that if I don't watch what I'm doing now and take it easy that I could seriously injure myself and then the half marathon might only be a dream. That means that the rest of the week, probably anyway, that I'll only be walking and doing upper body strength training. Ugh! Over and out.

Lo
