    I finally got my *kitten* on a bike, and my 17y/o son tells me that he wants to start working out. He wants to be in better shape!!! That means I have to modify my work out to incorporate him into it. That also means no regular cycling... I am going to be short of my goal!!! On the bright side, I get to decide..... P90x or Insanity.... He's gonna hurt.

    That's an opportunity of a life time, work out together for as long as you can. :-)

    My goal is more than last month (which was just under 120, I think). I think I'm gonna make it!

    On the bike trainer:
    12/1 - 60 minutes - 13.42 miles
    12/2 - 30 minutes - 7.61 miles
    12/3 - 60 minutes - 14.58 miles
    12/5 - 30 minutes - 6.42 miles (much higher resistance because had to use a different trainer)
    12/7 - 30 minutes - 7.33 miles (so glad my trainer is repaired!)
    12/8 - 30 minutes - 8.12 miles (pushed myself)
    12/9 - 35 minutes - 9.80 miles (pushed myself a bit more)
    12/10 - 40 minutes - 11.16 miles (pushed myself a little bit more)
    12/11 - 45 minutes - 11.29 miles (less intensity today)
    12/12 - 50 minutes - 12.57 miles (like yesterday, moderate intensity, good cadence, not too high HRT)
    12/13 - 30 minutes - 7.40 miles (legs a bit toasted so tried to keep 80 rpm, and not too high HRT)
    12/14 - 30 minutes - 7.53 miles (moderately easy)
    12/16 - 30 minutes - 8.13 miles (moderately hard, goal to avg over 16mph, keep rpms over 80, and not let HRT go too high)
    Total so far: 125.36 miles

    I've exceeded my goal for the month! Woot!

    How are y'all doing? :flowerforyou:

    Count me in!

    Just not this month though.

    My race season just finished up two weekends ago and I'm mostly focusing cutting weight. I'm doing a Sunday team ride right now and the rest its on the trainer.

    Keep up the great work, everyone!
