Running 28:00 [3]
Morning run with Andrew.
Cardio 1:00:00 [5]
Studio cycling on another stormy evening. Lots of sprinting and long, long, long, long climbs in this class. This instructor is insane with her climbs! Then she finishes us off with about 8 minutes of intervals. Whew!

Cardio 1:00:00 [5]
Studio cycling on this cold and rainy day. This felt a little easier than a few weeks ago so I must be getting into better condition. This instructor likes to do a lot of long standing climbs and low RPM and heavy resistance so I am building up my legs in this class. The Thursday night instructor is more into sprinting which is better for cardio. They are both great workouts.

Great day for a road ride. Light breeze, temp mid 80s, low humidity. Very nice Memorial Day. I hope to hit the pool later for first swim of the year after the neighborhood cookout.

Nice road ride. I was going to do studio cycling again but the weather cleared up and was nice and sunny, so decided to hit the road.

Weight training at the Columbia Gym before another studio cycling session.
Cardio 1:00:00 [5]
Another studio cycling class. It's still raining here so have to ride indoors. Very tough 60 minute workout again. If this does not whip me into shape nothing will!
Tuesday May 5, 2009 #
Core 18:00 [3]
Morning abdominal workout followed by push-ups and stretching.
Swimming 23:20 [3] 1.0 km (23:20 / km)
Decided to try some swimming again because ankle still not well enough for running. Maybe the kicking motion with no impact will help the ankle heal more quickly. I did 40 lengths at the Supreme Sports pool. I have not done swimming for some time so this was good workout for me.
Cardio 1:00:00 [5]
Weather has been horrible this week and I needed a good cardio workout so did a studio cycling class. These are always very tough if you want them to be. I was in the zone and working very hard for this. The key is to not rock back and forth during the standing parts. Use your legs for sole support and hands on the bars just for balance. It's brutally tough on your legs.
