Foot Power

That's my training pace, 10 min/mile, running. When you did the elliptical, did you hold on to the handlebars (if they moved back and forth)? I can't do that, it feels really unnatural. I stand upright, and basically run on it. It took awhile to get used to it, the stance was a little wide for me and I also felt a little off balance. Once I got the hand of it though, I preferred running on it than the little teeny track that the college health center had to offer. What I liked best was the ability to go backwards every so often. I do that on the trail sometimes (walk backwards during my cooldown) because it's supposed to be good for you, but I get a lot of weird looks, heh.

It comes from knowing that you set a goal, and rose to the challenge. Strength comes from within.
