new eyeglasses are light, flexible, scratch res. but wide which would be good for peripheral vision but bad for getting caught on branches

replicated paddling motion by raking walnut husks behind, briskly done its quite a good workout

church
biking 3:00:00 [2]
Wanted to do the great loop - Glendale to Marshall Rd. to Lone Elk/Chubb to Lewis Road to Rte. 66 park to Al Foster Trail back via Castlewood, but Rick had a shredded tire so we turned back after Rte. 66, got a ride to Marshall w/ some mountain bikers and limped home.

Note
(rest day)
Had grandiose plans of maintaing last weeks running mileage, but it won't happen. the good news is the hamstring strain seems to respond to bike pedaling really well, because it already is starting to feel like it will not be an issue. So the off-day is such a small price to pay.
Friday Feb 24, 2006 #
Note
slightly? injured. Jamie was showing me high-stepping exercises he has the track team do, and I think there is a mild hamstring pull. Conclusion: MUST stretch before ANY energetic motion. MUST do full yoga routine, not daily mini.
Resolution: keep stretching and core strengthening in tandem.

biking 1:15:00 [2]
nursing home, new house. dead into wind coming back.
biking 45:00 [4]
To Jamie's house and back. Sprint on the hills. Sit down form feeling good, accomplishing same thing as standing but much smoother, using upper body to generate power.
'weight' training 30:00 [2]
filling trash can with plaster and tile scraps, lugging and hoisting to dumpster. Very effective, lots of muscle groups.

ride to errand lunchtime, k-park
orienteering 45:00 [2]
zig zag course to k-park night 'o' controls

running 30:00 [3]
in circles, on grass. warmup for week
yoga 15:00 [2]
Not the full routine, but a shorter routine that I also did yesterday. I think I would prefer a shorter session every day, than a longer one once a week. But we'll see where it goes.
Note
trying to eat oatmeal for dinner to trim a few pounds, trouble is an hour later I'm already hungry

Note
(rest day)
its kind of reassuring that Monday seems to be asserting itself as a rest day. There's something re-assuring about a pattern. Surprised that I wanted a rest day for that quiet week though.
yoga 15:00 [1]
mini-yoga

running 30:00 [3]
ran to church and back. (figured it was warmer than biking)
Saturday Feb 18, 2006 #
orienteering 1:00:00 [1]
more like stumbling around in the woods, than running/orienteering. achilles tendon hurt. very cold.
Friday Feb 17, 2006 #
running hills 45:00 [4]
Trail running @ Queeny on way back from meeting.
running 15:00 [1]
Ran to parents house to borrow car. Forecast cold combined with long distance to meeting put a crimp in my Illinois bicycle exploration plans.

biking 1:30:00 [2]
new house/nursing home volunteer/meet client
Wednesday Feb 15, 2006 #
biking 45:00 [3]
bike to work on new house
'weight' training 1:00:00 [3]
cutting and carrying sheets of plywood at new house. Its a little funny putting manual labor as 'training', if you worked as a carpenter would you have 40 hours of training weekly?, but since for me it accomplishes the same thing as weight training would, just as running errands on the bike is not that different from riding the bike purely for training, I guess I'll go ahead and 'count' it. If anyone is reading this, what do you think? Actually if one is focused and aware, a lot of daily life can be 'training'.
Tuesday Feb 14, 2006 #
biking tempo 45:00 [4]
quick warmup ride to get the legs ready for the week. picked up organic roses.
yoga 30:00 [1]
at least one yoga session per week after a rest day seems to work best. two or three would be better, but stretches can be built into daily routine too.
