Weeks 5, 6 and 7

Oops I have been terrible at keeping current with my training posts.  My shin splints came back (boo) but I found a much better sports chiropractor (yay) so I've been doing the elliptical machine for my mid-week workouts along with yoga, and running outdoors only on the weekend long runs.  The last three weekends I have done 7 miles, 8 miles, and then 10 miles today -- feeling great! (albeit with some shin pain, though now only in my right leg.)
