Saturday Morning

Husband and I cycle commuted to the fitness center at work this morning.

The trip up the hill reminded me of one more thing that I wanted to mention. I have a triple up front, but lately I haven't been using the small ring when going up the hills. What does this mean?

I started off with did 2 miles on the ellliptical. It's a decent workout and I like it more than the treadmill, but would rather be running (outside of course).

I thought about my running group who had 12miles on the schedule today. I wonder if they thought about me. I also wonder how I'm going to join back in after all this time off. I guess I'll worry about that when I'm able to join back in..

I went through my upper body strength work again. No push-ups though. He did all strength work. Then we cycled back home.

It's awesome that Husband & I were able to spend Saturday morning together like this. I hope we can do this kind of this together for a long time. It was fun.

  2. Hey - I saw you!! Our group was stopped cuz someone had a flat. I thought it was you but wasn't sure, and then I recognized hubby behind you. I yelled out his name and think I startled him like a stalker :D

  6. You're getting strong, not even in the small chain ring! I am thinking about my running group this morning too, they are just about to go out for 13 before the 1/2 marathon taper starts. It makes me sad and wondering if I'll be back with them too and if my body will take it... but we've got to hang in there - it'll happen.

  15. You've encouraged me to restart push-ups, doing 3 sets with good form. Also, I'm interested in the results of your EPO experiment since I also have contact dermatitis and my baby has eczema...which I'm hoping will go away by age 1 but he's probably genetically predisposed otherwise!
