    :P

    It was the perfect day to ride--sunny, around 40--I'll take it! Unfortunately, it was also incredibly windy. So I ran some errands and have been attempting to do work.

    I'll get my hour on the trainer in tomorrow. I slept in today and am still feeling the after-effects of yesterday.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Half-hour on trainer because I forgot what time it was. I also forgot to eat beforehand. (The only thing I've had to eat today was breakfast!)

    One hour and 25 minutes doing threshold tempo intervals while watching the unranked Gopher womens' basketball team defeat 9th ranked Ohio State. (sorry OS fans )

    I am not doing the challenge, but I rode my trainer for maybe the 3d time this year (I have been going to spin classes 1-2X a week). I did half the Chris Carmichael workout that someone posted here, 35 minutes of fast spinning and endurance intervals. I did one set instead of 2 of the endurance intervals, as there is no way I can be on the trainer for an hour unless DH is there to talk to me.

    I have met my goal of 30 hours exercising this month - I chose to count all activities to encourage myself. While not that much time was spent on the actual trainer, I did put in a lot of spinning time - and of course there is also the time spent throwing weights around.

    I did, however, get in about 2 trainer sessions a week, and that isn't bad considering how hard it is for me to get on the thing.
