The weather yesterday was beautiful biking weather so several of the patrolmen gathered for a 50 mile bike ride (good training for the century). We've decided to continue biking over the winter when the weather permits. Hopefully this will be a mild Ohio winter. We're also planning some classes on bike maintenance and a well known local nutritionist/cyclist is going to setup a couple classes on biking specfic nutrition. Now I just need to sign up for the spinning classes this winter. I checked into the schedule and a couple of them will fit nicely into my schedule. Very cool. I would like to know more about maintaining my bike too. Tell you what - I'll wish the mild weather upon you and you think Deep Snow Thoughts for me?

Same here, Cynthia. I've found myself jumping on the treadmill more often this week simply because I wanted to see another day of exercise posted to the site. I've exercise everyday since I started posting to the site and that's a big improvement for me. I love seeing those points add up and hitting that Compare tab. Whatever works!

When there's a challenge that everyone can join where they run a race without proper training, shoes and nutrition, we'll let you know. Martha |

(and I'm bemused by feeling competitive - who knew? s) I find myself... say, I've walked 27 minutes and feeling tired or my ankle hurting, going that little bit extra so I can log that 30 minutes. Or 40 or whatever. I'm not feeling too competitive... though I like seeing that I am keeping up reasonably in both my groups at 50 percentile or better. Glad you like it! Cynthia 262/247.5/225 |
