Elliptical Twice

Elliptical machine, 30 min, 462 cal, 3.5 "miles," 7 mph, 70 RPM avg. Right now I’m trying to heal the abdominal wall strain (sports hernia) before the next marathon, just over three weeks away, so I’m not running. The elliptical machine is a decent alternative. It doesn’t hurt the sports hernia at all, for some reason, and even though it isn’t a perfect replacement for running (nothing is), it certainly can provide a good cardio workout.

I’m a little surprised at how nearly-identical this workout was with the one two days before (below).

Organic stuff mostly. The yellow vegetables are parsnips and carrots:
