Recovery

Well ..... it was supposed to be recovery! I am worried about my heart and the whole face thing so didn't run or ride yesterday and wanted to just go short and easy today. Very little effort, just cruising along two of the shorter loops around the hood. But turns out to be a great run! Felt nice to have that .....

PA punch list visit today, then picked up one kid (other got sent home early), then we are having a small birthday party for our good friend (and old nanny) watching WALL-E and eating Chinese.  Doubtful getting any sort of workout in .....

Something was all wrong with my heart today. By the 50 point of each regular 100 it was really hard to get any sort of oomph out of my stroke and my HR was through the roof! At the end of each one I was winded and weak. I checked my HR after one and it was close to 280 bpm ..... Super fast, super shallow and skipping all over the map.

I think I want to go to a doc. and test for Lyme Disease ... intuition says I need to do it .....

General Aerobic

Usual out and back. Crazy windy of course, in my face on the return leg. Knee started to bother me and I finally just told it to f-ck off and cut the bullshit and wouldn't you know it, by the time I got home it wasn't bothering me anymore. Mind over matter I guess! ;)

Recovery + Speed

Out and back loop with 6 x 100 strides mixed in. Pretty warm out actually (around 60) because it was misty and windy with a front coming through.

Dad duty all weekend again because Mir has another conference she is going to both days.  Gonna try to knock some X-Mas shopping out for my family.

Didn't drink a lot last night, but it was wine, which usually makes me "achey" in all my joints.  And then to get up at 5:10 so I could go to the other bar thing for the radio station (which I didn't win the trip) was rough.  Ate some of the free breakfast and had a Guinness.  Then got to work at 9.

What is the fun of being hungover when you weren't really that drunk???

Slept in, then getting kids ready for school, then work, then the retirement party.  So forced rest day.  Oh well.
