I've taken two days off with no more exercise than a couple of walks. I've been feeling a bit hectic - kind of a mix of work, making dinner, and mentally prepping for a couple of trips. So a couple of days with nothing felt right.

I rolled around on West Campus. It was enough to break a good sweat and feel like I'd done something outdoors. But it wasn't much more.

I shuffled around on West Campus. In the beginning I did not feel very good - legs were heavy feeling. But things improved after about 10 minutes and all was good.

I get a daily news release email from KU. Today a story caught my eye. Don Sloan is a nice guy and it was cool to see that he recognized my Dad:

I biked over to the river trail, did a loop and biked home. It was fun, but I got tired already at the turn-around and my legs felt really worn out climbing over Mt Oread at the end.

I haven't ridden the LRT in a while. As Sandy had told me, they've done some work on the trail and made a few spots easier. That's good, but even before the work the trail was pretty easy technically. Even though it is technically easy, I'm still improving with my technique almost every time I ride the LRT.
