Woke up with my stomach growling and hungry, so I made breakfast and tea. I played with Ruby & Oola (the two cats) for a little while to let everything digest. Then stretched and went on the elliptical at resistances 5 & 6 for 3.1 miles. My right achilles tendon has been hurting on and off for the past couple of days and, the other night after work, I noticed that my right ankle was swollen again. That was the ankle I sprained back in late November. I wanted exercise with less impact today, which is why I chose to work out on the elliptical. Plus, I know it is good to mix up the routine. After I "ellipticised," I hopped over to the treadmill and walked at 4.1mph and 2% incline for 1.1 miles. Afterwards, I did leg lifts and a couple of squats. I finished up with some full body stretches. I also noticed that my right tricept is really sore, especially when i touch it. I think it is definitely from when I pushed myself with weightlifting about 2 days ago. Later, I am goingto my grandfather's house to see him, my mom, dad, and out-of-town aunt and uncle. Then I have errands to run at a lot of different stores and then need to come back home, pack, and drive to Benn's house for Easter weekend! :)
