1:30 on the Elliptical. I've actually been enjoying my ellipticalling this week. I got some video books on my iPad for a certification that I'm working on and watching them while working out makes both much more enjoyable. If I were watching them in bed I'd just fall asleep, and if I were ellipticalling without them it would seem like eternity. So it's been a happy compromise. I get to keep some sort of fitness while expanding my mind.
I finally saw a doctor today, it only took me 4 months but I did it. He confirmed what my wife had figured out and told me I have an inflamed iliopsoas bursa sack. (that just sounds gross) He told me he could fix it with either a shot, or try some oral steroids for a week and see if that helps. I've never taken anything other than ibuprophen so I was a little skitish and I don't like shots but I'm willing to try anything at this point, I opted for the oral. The doctor says if this works I should be able to run again within a week.
