Another bad hip day, I did 3 miles on the treadmill and gave it up for the elliptical.

So out of the blue (kind of) a company that I interviewed with over a year ago called and offered me a job last Friday, and they offered me a rediculous amount of money to do it, like more than I ever thought anyone would be willing to give me without a Phd or something, yet strangely it's a very hard decision because it means I'd go back on the road. So my stomach is all in knots, I haven't slept all weekend, not sure what I'll end up doing.  Most likely I'll take it though.

The Rec center is back open so I went there, 1 hour on the elliptical followed by weights.  I actually think doing weights is the key, my legs and hip feel so much better after just doing light weight reps.

1 hour on the office elliptical.  I actaully like the office better than the rec center now cause I can turn the fans directly on me.  No weights or TV's at the office though.

I ordered replacement shoes for my worn out Nike Free's.  I was going to retire them when they hit 1000 miles but I'll never get there on the elliptical.  If I counted elliptical miles on my shoes they probably have 2000 on them, they are the same ones I ran Boston in last year so maybe I should keep them and hang them on my wall with my medal :)

1 hour on the elliptical, 15 minutes of weights.

It's official, I am now a Systems Engineer for Ruckus Wireless.  I know pretty exciting huh?  I'm am actually so excited I can't stand myself, I have been trying to get on with them for over a year.  I thought they just hated me but yesterday they finally came through with an offer too good to turn down.
