Is it March yet?

I hate not following an official plan yet. It's just random biking and swimming right now and training for the Petit Ice Breaker 1/2 Marathon. I went for a nice ride yesterday and now that my seat was adjusted I can really begin to enjoy the new bike! Rest day today and I'm itching to get a workout in. Early mornings and late morning workouts the rest of the week, YES!

My first date with "Bruce"

First week of official training for the IceBreaker 1/2 marathon and my first official date with Bruce (Bruce is my new bike...Bruce as in Bruce Wayne). Yes, I named my bike...don't judge. :O)

3 mile run this morning and then about a 45 minute ride on the bike. It was chilly but not too bad. Mostly just my toes were cold. I really need to have my seat or my set up adjusted. My crotch was not very comfortable on the bike. I'm having my biking heartrate threshold tested this Saturday in preparation for biking classes at the Bike Doctor in Dousman. I will have Jeff check out my positioning and fix it up! Other than that the ride was pretty sweet!! Temperature outside was 44 and sunny. I can't imagine riding with it too much colder we'll see I guess.

"Sick"

So my son said he was sick this morning....right now he just finished a PB&J and bag of cheetos.. Sick my arss! With all the crap going around I figured I'd keep him home when he complained of a tummy ache and cough. I'm thinking it could be a candy tummy ache! Either way whatever it is it kept me home from my gym this morning so 2 weeks in a row I'll be getting 2 rest days in a row. It's probably a good thing though. Rest is good.
