Increasing my mileage

Today was the longest run two months I believe. My HR is still pretty high for what should be an easy pace but with the heat and dehydration, I’ll take what I can get. Hopefully by the fall I’ll start to return to form and be ready for some good racing around Thanksgiving.  50 push-ups at the end. Peace!

A new thing

So I may switch up riding/running to work since it’s about 4M each way and I could use the exercise. Plus, since showers are available and I’ll be wearing scrubs, I should take advantage of it. The only thing I’m worried about is how “professional” running shorts and a sweaty t-shirt are showing up to work. Hopefully they’ll just think I’m crazy.

Commuting Miles (July 21-27): 56M

With my ride to the hospital being about 8M roundtrip I’ll probably average above 50M every week given that I’m there everyday. That doesn’t include any other excursions I might do or extra trips downtown to the university. I’m pretty excited about it and recently got some upgrades in the mail for my bike. Once I get them installed, I’ll be sure to post some final pictures.

  • Type: Cycle

  • Time: 22:00:00
  • Total Time: 3:30:00.00

Losing weight…

At least in the class I was. I was the human sprinkler with all the sweat that was coming off me. I need to work harder to find water breaks during the day because getting dehydrated totally whooped me. But it felt good and I was very loose afterwards.
