Weekly Recap: May 3-9

After more than 2 months of not running, besides the 1 week I attempted to run again before Boston, I am officially bored of the elliptical. I think I'm going to try to take a few spinning classes each week in addition to the class I teach to keep things a little bit more interesting. I did jump rope for a few minutes during my circuits this week and my leg felt great, no pain at all. I cannot wait to start running again on June 1!
