Made it to the gym. I did the elliptical for 30 mins. and I ran a little over a mile on the treadmill. My shin felt better after doing the elliptical. My friend met me at the gym and she is an avid runner, so I wanted to run too. Of course she's going like 7.0 mph compared to my 4.7-5.0 mph, but she started slow like me too and has improved over time. It's nice to have someone to workout with. We did a few weight machines too. I'm more inclined to try a new machine with my friend. We decided to try the "assisted pull-up" machine today. She went first and set the weight at 85lbs. and she did fine. I get on at the same weight and just sink right back down to the floor. I needed to add more weight. It was so funny! I would've been embarassed if I'd been by myself though. Anyway, I'm still laughing about it now, but I'm proud of myself for trying something new!

I'll list the specifics of my workout in another post.
