Rest day after a cross-training day

Well, I decided to take it easy today and allow my legs to rest. I did get my 15 minute massage..and plan to 1/2 hour massage on Monday. (I will need it!) They need the rest since I have working hard on the eliptical machine this week - in leu of running. I did some major grocery shopping this morning and saved ALOT of money. I am so proud of myself too. I had a very busy night at work last night - in fact this week period. Two reports - one medical on Tuesday and a damage to school property on another done this week. The most I have done in 6 months. **knock on wood** Plus I had a quiz that I was drilling me head with for my class. It really challenged me a lot. I hope I did well on it. Tommorow AM at 8 am I plan to get the 15 miles done. **sigh** I will have to do it alone. I do not like doing a higher mileage on my own. I would rather do it in a group. I do have the warm clothes that I need to do the run. I just not looking forward to it especially if the wind is STILL howling like today. **sigh** I really need some encouragement to the peanut gallery. I know that I can do it. I just have not ran this much on my own...since last year (which SUCKED!) I will have to remember the extra shirt, jacket and pants to change into so I do not FREEZE as I cool down. I did not do that once last year and it SUCKED! Please send the support!! BTW, note to all P.F. Chang runners - t-minus 3 MONTHS now.....to go before race day! Thursday's work-out 45:00 - Eliptical machine 4.51 miles 512 calories burned 9:58/mile
