1. I like Toastmasters. A lot.

2. Swimming! I went this morning and loved it. The ellipse is okay, the stationary bike is okay, but you don't get that heart-pounding flushed feeling like with running. Swimming laps, you do! Plus, it offers much happiness for the joints (like for example, hip joints) I think I will go again Wed. or Thurs.- if I can

yeah, I've got something up with my hip; it's been going on for a few months (ugh!) and I still don't know anything definite, but I just had an mri so hopefully that will yield some answers (and a treatment plan) to get me running again. But the dr. said swimming would be ok, so that works for me!

Now don't get me wrong- I'm no dolphin in there. In fact I suspect I look ridiculous. I don't actually think I'm doing the freestyle "right," it's what I remember from lessons when I was... uh... I guess 7 or 8 yo. but I don't think anyone but the lifeguards are paying attention. :)
