Comments/Thoughts:
My ankle held up really well today and my soreness level is decreasing. I am glad things are becoming more fun to do. I did the treadmill today at 15 incline and it was not too bad. All of the hiking is paying off in a general fitness way. They really focus on the lower body here, most stretches and lunges and squats really help you build some strength down low. I do think I need to ice my ankle everyday from this point forward.

Hike and Exercise:
The hike today was Winding Way, and it was a moderate hike. We finished it pretty early too so I had time to relax before my water class. The hike starts out in a neighborhood and goes downhill mostly to begin with. There are only a couple of challenging hills on the hike so you get to enjoy the scenery. There is a nice waterfall and lots of creeks to cross. I rented walking poles and found that they really helped my lower back and ankle for the hike.
As far as classes for the day, I started with stretch with Sam teaching which started the day off right. I signed up for a spinning class and am still coughing out the seat. The seat on those bikes are crazy painful. After spin I went immediately into kickboxing and then mountain. Mountain was on a treadmill for me today, it essentially is 12 - 3 minute intervals, increasing either speed or incline on each interval. Good class, and I was lucky to finish the day in the water.
Food:
Breakfast was a turkey sausage and egg sandwich with some mixed fruit. One of the better breakfasts since it has some meat on it. Lunch was french onion soup, and a greek pita with salad. This was a great lunch and much better than I thought it would be. The soup was great even though it had no onion chunks in it, and the pita was amazing. Finally, dinner was a salmon fillet on Israeli couscous with asparagus, and a grilled pineapple skewer for dessert. The salmon was great and I thoroughly enjoyed the pineapple. I was starving at night so I ate a side salad from the bar and that seemed to hit to spot.
