Up Dyson Hollow to warmup. Then 4x2 min. on/2 off and finished with 1 hard minute. Cool down. @6:04, @5:53, @5:43, @6:04, @5:48. Knee was a little questionable at the start and I could feel it throughout so was putting on the brakes a bit. Got worse...bummer.

Took a little while to get started on my new millE this morning. Apparently, it was programmed with a demo mode, so I had to figure out how to get rid of that. Then, I figured out the the incline is somehow reversed. Ha! So, when it says it's at 15, it's really at zero. Oy! Well, I got some running in, and now I need to call for service :).

Going to try to hit the pool today after work. Before I go certifiably insane.

Happy Tuesday.

Struggling on the treadmill. Just so tight in the morning. But got it done.

Watching CNN and the political analyst was asked what makes Iowa so different from New Hampshire. The response confused me - "Iowa is more Evangelical"? Guess growing up in Iowa I didn't find it to be a hot bed of Evangelicals. Whole lots of Catholics, Methodists, Lutherans, but not so much on the Evangelical front. Maybe I don't know what an Evangelical is or things have changed since I moved a mile across the border.

Circuit training for a while followed by a 30-minute yoga session and PT routine. I somehow managed to puncture my second tire in two months in my basement. I couldn't get the patch to stick effectively on the last one so I switched the front and rear tubes since I don't ever intend to ride outside again. Going to try with some better adhesive tonight, I guess. I have no idea how I'm puncturing tubes on a magnetic metal track in my basement. I guess I'm good at breaking things.

    • posted at 01:14:00 EDT
  • Hasheri Hasheri That's impressive. Did you pump the tires up to max while the basement was cold and the temp warmed up? Also check your rim tape to make sure it is covering all the spoke holes.
    • posted at 04:50:00 EDT
  • moxie moxie ^The basement is pretty much constantly at around 45-50 degrees, without much change during the winter. I pumped it up maybe a week ago and it held pressure until yesterday. I'll check the rim tape...if I can find what that is. I am not handy.
