55 minutes today. I've started watching the extended version of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. have to be on the bike to watch it - whatever works My neck was starting to tense up so it seemed a good stopping point.
Yesterday I hiked for 2 hours on the mountain bike trails in my favorite park...my hiking partner is also off the mountain bike for a time. We enjoyed the hike but were both wishing we had our bikes with us!

30 minutes on the trainer today. Felt like crud but I did it.
Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...
Ohhh goood. Did The Sufferfest "Angels" for the first time today. I don't think I can feel my legs.
1 very hilarious yet miserable hour. I feel great!

Temp is in the 20's here with a little snow on the ground. So yesterday I put in Global Ride's Maui Rollers, turned on the music, turned off spoken coaching and just rolled along for 55 minutes doing lots of climbing with beautiful scenery.

I did an hour yesterday, accompanied by YouTube episodes of TV shows. It was nice having breaks to load the videos.
At least I don't leave slime trails.

It might be worthwhile to get Netflix Instant... lots of TV shows/episodes to choose from. You'll never be bored!

15 minutes on the trainer, with just music. (I had fun trying to sing along with the Lion King songs I'd put on that playlist!) I need to remember to do this when I get home (after I've had a snack, of course!), since that way the heating is OFF.
Last night took more out of me than I thought. I didn't feel too bad, but I lay down last night and was hit by a wave of tiredness. My side is feeling better, but I don't want to push it with hard gears just yet.
At least I don't leave slime trails.

A little over 20 minutes this morning doing "fat burner" intervals (2 minutes at max effort, 2 minutes off, repeat...) with the tv flipping between 2 different music channels. This week is a holiday killer of eating out for various biz functions - lunch AND dinner out yesterday, lunch and dinner again tomorrow, office shindig Friday.... Uffda. I need lots of fat burner this week.
Hey Owlie - you made it an hour on the trainer! Good for you!

Finally got to a computrainer class last night - nothing indoors last week! I did do 65 miles outside on Saturday, though.
This is such a tough time of year with holiday functions, etc. Thanks for the extra motivation.

No riding today, inside or outside. I figure my body needs to rest today so am allowing it to do so - just need to get the sedation out of my system. I will see how things feel tomorrow, but will either do the trainer or the ArcTrainer at my fitness club.
