TE December Indoor Cycling Challenge

[pll]

I just realized most of you ladies live in the frigid NE...so sorry ! If you can deal with 100 at 9:00 am in July- it is 50 now in VA- the last 6 hours I logged were outside(:!!!!!!!! Though now that I think back to fainting in July in spite of 3 Gatorades.........maybe you don't want to move!

We had some snow this morning, and it has been cloudy and a bit cold all day. Boo. It zaps my energy.

no doubt- hard to motivate when its gray...........

1 hour on the trainer today watching the second disk of Lord of the Rings, the extended version. Did lots of sprints during the section in the Mines of Moria...then went for a nice hike outside.

I am riding outside today

[Crankin]

Yup, I rode outside yesterday and may try to brave it today, with a high of 28.
I did go to spin class Friday.
Not doing the challenge because when the roads get bad and it gets too cold for me to ride outside, my focus switches to snow sports. I still go to spin/ride the trainer 2-3 times a week, but in my lazy way, I don't like setting goals. I find I need to be flexible and then I am more likely to reach the goal I have in mind.

Which also sounds like a good way to keep it fun! (:

I get that winter lack of daylight depression, SAD, and I know what you are saying. Regardless if is freezing with two feet of snow outside the sunshine makes it all ok.

One proven motivation to "just do it" anyway is our mood boost exercise gives us. Those happy endorphines help me to make a little sunshine inside my head, regardless of the sky.
