    One hour of rowing and the finger felt OK. Bought this thing that basically goes around the finger and protects it.

    Rowed 11K meters, pretty slow, but averaged right around 68 or 69% HRM for the hour. Roughly 750 calories.

    50 minutes spin bike - sprint intervals
    10 min warm/10 min cool
    15 x 1 min sprint/1 min normal

    Don't know what the other riders consider a sprint... for me a normal cadence is 80, so the sprint was a cadence of 120 minimum.

    120 is a nice high cadence! I like to spin at an 85-90 cadence, but anything over 110 is close to top end for me. I can hit 120-122, but it leads to bouncing in the saddle, so I don't sustain it.

    Took my tender hamstring for a test run after two weeks off. It felt fine during an easy paced 40 minute run. No need to push, as this is just off season stuff.

    Gym work with trainer this morning. She continues to focus on my weaknesses, particularly balance and limited range of motion. She's also pushing me in areas related to swimming, such as with lat pulldowns and hanging work. While a bit humbling, its also very exciting, because I should be in a much better position next spring after we focus on these areas this winter.

    I did my usual Elliptical but did more time than what I've been doing (2.5 hours). Did 3 hours 10 minutes today. It came to 15 miles. I was watching a movie part ways through then started the next of the series and figured I would finish it. Hoping to drop tomorrow into the 170's.

    Did 210 minutes (3.5 hours) on my Elliptical this AM. I got to 15.25 miles. I do this straight through in the AM, before eating, on my days off. Do so long to makeup for no time to exercise on my work days. Also FINALLY broke the 180 barrier! 179.2 lbs today!

    Injured finger was feeling better, so I attempted the 4 X 2K meter row again (with 3:30 rest between). Not pretty time wise -- 2:12.3 average pace -- but I finished it. Even for Tucson in November, it was a pretty hot day. Very little breeze and around 80 at lunch today. I was around a second and a half slower than my time two weeks ago.

    I did push it, though. HR hit 93% and 94% max on last two intervals. Roughly 830 calories for the hour, including cool down and putting the rower away.

    Gym lifting tonight. Will likely take it a tad easier there. That 4 X 2K is brutal.

    Spin cycle - 50 minutes
    Steps tonight:
    5 min @ 80, 90, 100, 110, 120
    10 min @ 100, 90, 80

    Just to see what I had left in the tank, at 48 minutes I did a 30 sec sprint @ 150 (had to hold myself down on the bars but I pulled it off)

    Tomorrow I should be able to get out on the real bike again.
