Saving the Long Rides for Outside

That’s what I’ve been doing. As evidenced by the fact that a 2 hour moderate pace ride wears me out!

The past few days have been great and I’ve done a few on and off road rides. There’s no doubt that I am out of shape, but that’s ok. I’m interested to see how fast I can get back to top form. (The race coming up on the 8th will surely give me an idea of where I’m at now…)

I’ll be doing 4-5 hour rides in no time :)

Let’s hope the snow is done!

It warmed up over the weekend and looks like things will be hovering around 40 for a while. Sounds good to me!

I got a short run in and rode BMX over the weekend, outside! And my last road ride was 2:15 on the rollers. I only do that once a week so it doesn’t bother me much at all, as long as I have some good music.

I’m planning to have a good season the whole season this year, instead of being burnt out by September. I’m glad I didn’t train too hard inside, because I’m so excited by the sun and relatively warm weather now!

Food and Fitness Trends, and a cartoon

This article presents some of the latest trends and tells why they matter. I think it does a pretty good job of it. In other words, go check it out. :)

It also reminded me of a cartoon I saw a few days ago. A couple middle-age people are standing at the produce aisle of a supermarket, and one says, “Just think, back when our parents were our age, nothing was organic!”
