10 min stretching,  Dual Pulley Pull down   35 lbs - 25 reps then 45 lbs 20 reps then 65 lbs at 10 reps.   seated row   30lbsx20r...35lbsx20r...40lbsx20r  .   Leg Press   60lbsx20r.... 7dlbsx 25r....   leg extension  75lbs x 10 reps x 3 each...... seated leg curl 45 lbs x 15 reps x 2 each....  times up! 
lol, so i was asked today why i am limping!  I did not know I was limping!  Well, it is time for knew shoes...these heels are killing my knees anyway!

Tuesday:  3.1 miles. not feeling too good. ;(  knee hurts ....

Wed:  yeah, i may have overdone the workout on Monday..just a little... i iced last night and slept well.  This morning i put on my knee brace and spent an hour on the eliptical.  6 miles ... now that made me feel good.  the brace helped a lot.  thank goodness.  so i have a four mile run in the morning. i will prepare for it tonight.  i may do the treadmill..... 
Thursday:  I ran 3 miles....  34 min... 
Friday off from running, did a workout at home, and stretching.
Saturday off:  i want to be ready for my long run
Sunday :)  7.1 miles,  felt pretty good, i walked twice, once to cross at an intersection, and once to remove my jacket.   i carried a water bottle with me, glad i did, even though it wasn't too hot out and i did not finish it.   I wore my knee brace, so that was good, my knee felt good until the last two miles but it held up.   it felt good!!  :) 

total miles for the week:  13.2 miles for the week!  this does not include the eliptical miles....
