Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

I finally succumbed to the weather.  13 degrees is just too cold right now.  Hit the gym for some spinning and toted my HRM along just to make it a bit more interesting.

30:00 stationary bike,  Avg HR 122

 

NOON

33 degrees and very sunny with no wind...perfect!  Headed up Willow Creek for some drills and then back to the office.

2.25 up to Willow Creek, Avg. HR 144

2 sets of XC Skier, ski hop, speed skater, butt-kicks, high-knee skipping, carioca, & bounding w/ a stride between each, avg. HR 134,

2.25 back to the office, Avg HR 151

So cold. I only have so many days where I can force myself to go out in temps like these. Gotta save those days for spring.
