ran a little, walked a little. We'll see if that makes my knee hurt in the morning.

It was an early morning today. The workout was good though. meeting in the morning, coding in the afternoon.

Hayashi always seems to add some pounds. might have to skip the noodles for a bit.

On a more geeky note: I have not been able to create and consume webservices using springframework's spring-ws! I am consuming a webservice provided by CICS on the uni's mainframe in a spring application. It works as expected and was a snap to get up and running.

I am also using spring to impement a webservice. That took a bit more work. They subscribe to the ContractFirst method of webservices. So you need to create the xml schema document first. That isn't too bad as most xml editors will generate a schema from xml for you. After that there is some plumbing that is required to implement the endpoints and the service itself but it is really pretty minimal. In the end your code will be a bit more maintainable, or so the theory goes. I'm just pretty happy that they are both working!

Overall I am really happy with spring. You tend to generate a bit more code at the outset but maintenance and changing seems like it will be quite a bit less painful in the long run.

My thighs hurt from the X-Trainer today so I did the bike. Busy morning today.

I did the new style X-Trainer/Eliptical machine today. It was pretty rough going even on level 1. I will prolly give it another go tomorrow. I just don't seem to have the motivation to run right now

Did the recumbant(sp?) bike today. I don't know if it's the medicine the dr perscribed or just that my knee is better but it is feeling fine now. Now I just need to get myself motivated to run again.

Too much Pizza this weekend apparently. Although it was cheeseless whole wheat pizza that I made my self. It was very good though.

Started taking the new perscription today. The dr. said it may take a while to build up in the system. My knee has been feeling better the last few days. I may try running again on monday and see how that goes.

Well the dr took an x-ray and didn't see much. He perscribed a painkiller/anti-inflamatory pill to take for ten days. If the pain is still there then he said we would prolly do an MRI to see if there it is cartilage or tendons. Of course the knee is feeling much better today.

I got all the way to the gym today before I realized I forgot my lunch at home. I had to go back and get it. The work out was still good. My knee isn't bothering me much today. It's probably scared of the dr this afternoon.
