i would say steady on the eliptical trainer (is that one of those cross country ski jobs that fucks up your spine??) would be a better idea, trying to increase your fitness or working your muscles hard will just decrease your enjoyment on the track.
in fairness you will make it through the first session almost purely on adrenaline have an awesome time and then be in a world of pain for a few hours/days depending on how hard you pushed yourself compared to how fit you are.
