Very easy miles, about 9:10 pace, at 1% incoine. Hip felt so fine that i forgot to do a walk break! Great signs :)

Was supposed to go skydiving today, but it was postponed due to weather.... not sure if i am happy or sad about that! Anyway,  decided that with my soare time after running so early, i would be virtuous and get a core workout in...

15 crunches on swiss ball

15 lat pulldowns

15 swiss ball pikes or jack knife thingys

15 hanging leg raises
