    DH and I went out for an easy (for me) 25. He's still searching for the right saddle for his road bike. I took the opportunity to work on my spin, but my stupid cadence sensor isn't working. Grrrr. It's not the battery - I think the sensor unit has gone kaput, have to call Garmin in the morning. I can get my distance from mapmyride and figure the average speed from there, didn't even put on the HRM for tooling around (but I can live without that for cycling too), but I NEED my cadence monitor. Arrrgh.

    Then I went for a run just so I could get a workout. It was supposed to be my long run day, but since it was kindasorta a brick which I don't normally do, I kept it short.

    It was a beautiful day. I turned over 3500 for the year yesterday.

    Yay Oakleaf! 3500 sounds great. I should keep track next year and see what kind of milage I actually am doing. I'm sure it's nowhere near that!

    Great for all of you for getting out there. Roads are still way too scary here for riding. Only partially plowed, and there is snow and gravel piled everywhere on what should be the white lines and side of the roads. Maybe in about a month!?

    Someone ride for me and tell me how it is!

    I just rode 25 miles in my living room on rollers. BO-RING! But it was a good workout. Our roads are melting off, but there's so much gravel that it would be impossible to stop at the bottom of the hill. Missing my mark of 3000 by 150.

    It was 48-54 and sunny in Texas so I thought it was a good time to ride. Proof that us native Texans are wimps, I wore a wool skull cap, tights over shorts, long sleeve jersey (mid weight), light base layer, glove liners and a cycling jacket. I was cozy the entire 30 miler.

    I think it was possibly my last ride of the year so put my down at 2238. Way down from 3500 last year but oh well.
