January Indoor Challenge

10 minutes on the trainer before realizing that doing it with a cold and at 10:00 at night is probably not the best idea.

I so hear the doing it at 10:00 at night

If I exercise much past 8, I have troubles sleeping (though I have to say - this challenge has had me sleeping much better - on average).

I'm 7 for 7 this month. I am allowing myself to cross train this month as I wish - which I suspect will result in less total rest days. My legs were trashed yesterday, and felt much better for a 45 minute zone 2 spin. This is a positive change!

All of my good intentions came to a smoking end this week. Wed was my Bday so I was totally distracted. Then I have had thyroid issues, like lack of energy and not sleeping well at night to give me problems. Hubby is watching the football, it is a nice sunny day but it's very cold outside. I'm thinking about eating lunch and then hitting the treadmill. That way I have food in me before even trying to do something. Then I can watch the football while I'm walking. *cross fingers*

Unheard of nice weather in January for central Indiana! A bit cooler than yesterday, but highs still in the 40's. I got in an hour on the road - was going to ride longer but the wind started picking up and my neck started complaining. It has really improved with the PT, even after only 2 visits, but I am not pushing it.

When I got home from my ride I broke out my mountain bike and just played in the grass for awhile, rolled off a couple of curbs to make certain I still remember how to roll over small obstacles. Well, any excuse will do right now I didn't push it and it felt great to be back on my mountain bike - even doing such simple things with it - the first time I've been on it since my fall in late October.

I will be out of town next weekend so it was all evil Coach Troy this weekend. Mental Toughness on Saturday and The Pain Cave yesterday. I did enjoy a nice 45 minute walk through the neighborhood with Katy dog yesterday. I would have liked to have gotten outside for a ride (what a strange "winter" we are having) but I had a lot to get done and it is just easier and quicker to hop on the trainer.
