Catch Me If You Can

Since I missed my ride on Wednesday I made up today. But it was bitterly cold. Did my warmup inside, 30min on the trainer. Then steep hills outside. 5x3:30 Hills. Easy back down. 30 min warmdown inside on trainer.

 Total Cycle 85min.

It's Spring Break ladies and gents. :D Nice not having to drive kids everywhere! Pretty laid back day....

It was another sort of Mary Poppins run...cloudy and a little windy with a few rain drops.

This run included some more lovely hills, the same location as my SpeedHills last week...Today tho, the distance was longer but slow on the way up. 367ft Ascent. I will tell you it was a 1.25mile hill tho it was really 1.26..I figure it will drive some crazy. Haha. So we will pretend it was only 1.25miles.

So anyway..I ran up 3x, down 5x, plus enough of a warmdown to make 10.2miles.

Took a lovely nap. Had a little bit of kids Easter Candy. Bought a CD.

I am going to try and fig out how to do a video..I know someone somewhere said how to put a YouTube vid on here....tbc... 

If anyone can remind me how..It will spare this bloodvessel in my forehead that is going to burst!

 Woot. Thanks Vinh for the info, I would have never thought paste worked till you said it did. I figured out that I Have to hit Toggle HTML Source to be able to paste in my blog entry. Anyhow, I can't imagine anyone really wants to listen to this song....but it's just showing what CD I bought..haha. Danger Wildman! :P

8p.m. Was busy today can't remember what I was doing but my bike was put off till late. So I hooked it up to the CycleOps. Trainer can be brutal depending on the workout. This was race like effort on the repeats. I felt like puking on the 5 minute intervals. Started thinking about how the hard music I was listening to was delicate and pretty compared to the way my quads were screaming. Thought I was in labor. I was pretty sure I would be curled up in a ball on the floor after this workout but I survived.

Was a long 85 min Ride 

6mile run outside. Slow.

Went longboarding with kids too. :D 

Almost forgot...Went to gym 8p.m. to Lift Weights: Back and Rear Delts. 

For Kelli: :) 

Oh, almost forgot. I am not the author of the above paragraph on Rear Delt Raise. I found it online. The Muscle-y man on top of it caught my eye. 

Swim 3000yd.

Very fun Brick workout. Was a perfect day. Rode out in West Mountain area. Bike 30miles followed by a 3.17mile run 22:06/6:58pace.

Went to Cafe Rio and Longboarding with kids and hubby after. :D 

Slow 6 mile Run outdoors. Coaches orders. It's funny when I run really slow, I feel like I look like a lil bunny hoppin around since it is no effort.

Another Brick workout. Fun fun!!! :D

Biked 35.40miles. BEAUTIFUL day, again. Immediately following, a 3.03 mile run. 20:09/6:39pace. Slowed on last mile, it was uphill. 135ft Ascent on the run.

Went and made a fire in the canyon with the FAM and ate a HOT DOG! I haven't had one of those in forever. It was 100% Angus beef but it still tasted gross to me..haha. Then I had a couple smores. Now those I could eat 500 of. 

Stretched Legs 30min before bed.
