WOD 05/07/2009 Solo Point Ride


Today Josh M. and I rode away the rainy day blues with a ride at Solo Point under sunny skies. The trail conditions were great and I am surprised how well they have held up after all the rain we got this week. Two more weeks before we head to Spokane for our 24 Hour MTB race. I feel my fitness is coming along and should hold up at the race if I pace myself and take care of myself between laps. Today's Miles: 10.5 (14-16 on the RPE scale)

WOD 05/06/2009 Stronger!


Today I felt much better after taking a day off yesterday and sleeping in a bit. I still feel like I'm on the verge of getting sick with my congestion and sore throat. I was curious what is the threshold of sickness that you should not workout and I found this.

Warm-Up
5 min on/5 min recovery
4 min on/4 min recovery
3 min on/ 3 min recovery
2 min on/2 min recovery
1 min on/1 min recovery

A storm is moving through this week so I will be back in the garage. Storms that last a week suck.

WOD 05/04/2009 WEAK!?!?!

10 Hanging Cleans
10 Ring Dips
5 Pull Ups

Today was was a good workout, but I felt sluggish and a little weak. Probaly because it's been a long time since I have done cleans.

WOD 05/01/2009 Commute to Work x 2


Last night I laid everything out and went to bed early so I could get up and ride into work. Well, 7 snoozes later I finally got in time to drive to work. But the dreaded check engine light raised its ugly head and I ended up going back home to work on that issue and 7 hours later I'm riding my bike to work like I should have done earlier. This time its more of a necessity rather than for fun. but it was still fun. Oh well, maybe this will kick start my commuting season. Total miles: 30.35. And its been a while since I did a weigh in so...weight: 203 weight lost: 15 (weight gained back: 4) goal: 20!@# I mean 24 more pounds
