This morning, I got up, slowly, and with less enthusiasm than I'm previously accustom to these days, hastily stretched my body and booked it to the bus, with 2 minutes to spare. I walked my away across the giant mall parking lot, and into the gym. I hopped on the the very last (or very first, depending which way you're counting) in the row elliptical, and did a random set for 10 minutes. Usually, I do the Cardio option, but I wanted to mix it up a little.
After I finished the elliptical, I moved on to the row of treadmills and hopped on one of those. I started Week3 Day 2 of c25k, and just went for it. In the beginning, and then again towards the end, my lower back/hip on the left side started feeling a little pinchy. I've never had a pain there before and since it happened when I was walking, not jogging, I figured it was just a bit of alignment being thrown off. I sure hope its not anything too serious. I stretched when I got home, and I feel fine now. But I think at this point I really do need to take days off from the program in between days. Usually I do this same routine every Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday. From now on, I'm going to give myself a break in between days. I'll still be going to the gym, but on Wednesdays I'm going to do the circuit training instead.
So it shall be written, so it shall be done.

Good luck with everything! Changing up your routine is always great! I think it really helps keep things interesting while challenging your body!
Been a while since I used an elliptical I miss using the one at the gym, not been able to find one that will fit into our home that is in the right price range for us. But its a great work out that is for sure, great to hear someone else enjoys using it. WOOT!
