Did UB today. Did not chase my wife. She chases me, I'm the Chuck Norris of married men.

Rower: 30min

Stretching: 30min

Wasn't chased a single minute. Must be doing something wrong.

No, that'll be tonight....

44.5 miles; we started with some serious climbing, then buzzed ~20 on the flats, then back up into the hills to finish. Gorgeous spring ride in a pastoral paradise. I'll try to grab a pic.

Edit; one reason I love the climbing routes around here is that it's basically like doing high-intensity intervals. Climb like hell, and you can get to a pretty maxed out HR and aerobic place if you choose......... then blow down the other side, which is FUN. Then climb like hell again.

Did I mention it's fun? A bike is a really fun thing.

That said, after 45 miles, I was ready to get off the damn thing <g>.

Anybody use Strava?

I much prefer Java.

Did lower body/core yesterday. Then a 3-mile hike with the dog. Tough to keep up, there were birds running everywhere.

I spent the last two days on a ladder, priming eaves.

That's GOTTA count for something, yeah?

1/2 hr on treadmill this morning

Walked 3.5mph at 5deg incline for most of it, up to 10 deg right before cool down minute. Also, threw a mile run at 9:15 pace and no incline in the middle.

Went to chiropractor Friday which helped my back/shoulders a lot. I have a follow up appt today.

Finished building a chicken coop over the weekend, like Jeff O said - That's gotta count for something!

Plan to recoup and work on projects this week then hit the weights Monday. The great weather makes heading to the gym tough.

14 mins of:
Double Unders - 30reps
Ring Dips (jumping) - 10 reps

Made 5 full rounds.

Taking your wallet out of your pants pocket and putting it on the coffee table each night would put an end to that toot-sweet.

Incline bench press, 125-300 lbs
Clean and jerks, 125x2
Shoulder press, 125x20
Dealifts, 215-315 lbs

I can see why you'd think that, because I'm obviously very wealthy. But she likes to chase me when I come out of the shower, naked.

TMI!

Ok, day 3 on the ladder, and today was a €£^%# workout, and I don't CARE if all y'all agree!

My ride nazi buddy had his knee swell up a little after our 45-miler the other day so he's been very quiet. Hoping to get a ride in tomorrow. I'm beat. I now know I do not want a career in priming eaves.
