4.5 mile run

went to the gym to swim...but they did some maintenance on the pool over the weekend and the water temp was 60 degrees - that's COLD! way too cold for me to get in. luckily i was still in my running clothes, so i still worked out for an hour...

10 minutes on the rowing machine
15 minutes on the elliptical
10 minutes on rowing machine
15 minutes on the elliptical

{i'm ADD on those cardio machines at the gym...and i was also trying to workout my chest/shoulders like i would have if i had been able to swim but still get my heart rate up}

then i did...

15 pushups/50 crunches 4 times (total of 60 pushups and 200 crunches)
