  • Exercised?: Yes. Calories?: Yes. Tracked?: Yes. Exercise! Heh! I got a raft of PRs this morning. Weather was suboptimal. I didn't feel like doing my usual hill repeat regimen. Nobody in the parking lot. Nobody on the trail. I will do the 10k loop if there ain't no trail runners around. So I crank a satisfying crank. I love…
  • Heh! Furnace! That tickled an old memory. House I had was built in like the 20's or 30's. It had a coal furnace in the basement. You would burn coal in it and the heat would rise convection wise up through the first floor and hypothetically up to the second floor. So much for that idea. I ended up moving into the basement…
  • Some weird thing about me thinks I would like that much snow. In my imagination I would just have a fireplace and a pile of firewood. I would just lounge there with a book or two. Then my memory traces back to the days of my misspent youth. Snowdrift as high as my barn. Neighbors digging each other out with front end…
  • Maybe I better rephrase that...
  • Ugh. 8 days into February and I only accumulated 2 hours of exercise for the month. But beauty big time! All is not lost. I am always thinking about my dietary, exercise and lifestyle behaviors because of this group. Today weather, equipment and everything else converged on letting me have some pleasantness outside for a…
  • February 3 Exercised?: Yes. A little bit on the light side by my usual. In the house floor exercise. Calories?: Yes. Tracked?: Yes. Heh! I had the munchies. Nothing in the house available like chips or anything. I end up going in the freezer and getting a bag of frozen vegetables out. Heh! I had vegetable popsicles.
  • Feb 2nd Behavior - on track and in tolerance. A good day. This year I have added pushups to my daily. So after thirty days I am getting to where I can do more of them. I can feel my entire core when I do that exercise. I guess plankers know what I am talking about. I like it. Took my little Buddy to the park. Pretty day.
  • Kind of off to a sluggish start. Bike is in the shop. Too much alcohol today. I am coming up on ten pounds over my set point. That happens this time of year. I suspect that the older I get the harder it will be to whittle it back down. Pass #1
  • Heh! I PR'd a climb segment today. I beat my Christmas climb on that segment by 5 seconds. Hey, where else am I going to brag about that?
  • Walking in the rain. I am going outside tomorrow no matter what.
  • Heh! I always like reading posts from this @zorrocat dude. He has got numbers. I figure him to be a future ultra runner. I try to keep a grip on my numbers. For as geezer as I am I held KOM an an impressive segment for a while. That'll be my mental legacy for a good while.
  • Join on the 10th. That probably violates the group charter. I probably won't be posting all that much. I just want to say this. My odometer turned half a million today. I got 500,000 feet of climb in the last 26 months or so. That is a lot of Eiffels. It is a lot of adventures and road mysteries. Heh! I inspired a goofy…
