Tried a different deer trail around the treatment lagoons and this route was much easier to navigate. Pretty much follows the Platte and then north to the treatment plant. Fun to get off road a little, esp.on a clear cold day in a little bit of new powder.

Late night, early meeting so slept in a bit. Snowed all day, not much moisture so it will be easy to move. Must have been compensating for my foot last night as the outside of the foot and the back of my leg is a bit sore. Boring games last night but at least we got paid. :)

Goal was to keep the HR at/near 141; I'd say I nailed it.

To do so, I have to run uphill slower (figured that'd be the case), but down and flat need to be a little quicker than I've probably been doing.

Using the 180 Formula, I'll go w/ Easy @ 141, Long @ 136 & Recovery @ 131; this base will be my January. Which I'll handle, like an ace. I'll be an ... Ace of Base.

Would've liked to have gone more, but about an hour out there seems to be my limit in this cold. What do you guys put on the parts of your face to keep it from getting frost bit or windburnt? I've got a couple small areas where my neck gator doesn't reach that I need to pay better attention to.
  • carljsamuelson carljsamuelson I think I've heard vaseline can work. Never tried it though.

Meadowlark. The guys were nice enough to go in Wednesday since I can't do Friday. Ahhh, so sweet. Me, Matt, Ben, Greg, and my failure of a watch--Warm-Weather Only Garmin. Felt good today. What a difference a day makes. :) Thank goodness there's always a tomorrow.

Plumbing problems resolved!! Only cost me my first born. :D

Have an awesome Wednesday.
  • freejack freejack Glad you got the plumbing fixed. My Garmin is holding up in this cold, my phone, however, is not. Yesterday it made it 40 minutes, today it made it 42.

Acupuncture is amazing. I had so many knots in my calves yesterday. Slept at my new place last night so I had to explore a bit this morning. Some snow in spots. Found some areas that were wonderfully cleared as well. The code finally started getting to me around mile 8. Face, forearms and hands were feeling it by the end.

40 minutes yoga, 60 minutes cycling pre. Easy running at high incline. I'm playing around with calisthenics. Did 5 rounds of the following:
3 chin ups
30 second wall squat
15 tricep dips
15 air squats
12 push ups
2 pull ups
5 hanging leg raises
10 decline push ups
30 power jumps (jump from squat bringing legs to hands)

+ 2 minutes of wall handstand holds after. Whole thing only took 25 minutes at most. I'm hoping this will advance my yoga practice a little.
  • getfuzzy getfuzzy really dig that calisthenics workout. wow!!
    • posted at 08:50:00 EDT
  • Edie Edie How did you come up with the reps numbers and what is the differnce between chin ups and pull ups?
    • posted at 08:50:00 EDT
  • moxie moxie ^Mostly random. I've been reading through some books on the subject. None of them lay out actual workouts so I strung this together. Chin up is palms facing toward you, pull ups are palms facing away. The latter is more difficult since you aren't aided by
    • posted at 09:18:00 EDT
  • moxie moxie your biceps. Handstands are just because I want to be able to do them without a wall. I'm working up to never having to do another damn plank or sit up again and just doing dynamic core stuff.
