BRRRRRRRRRRR!

Brandon and I went for a bike ride this morning. TL Temperature read 28 degrees when I took the bike off the rack at the Orting trail. We had originally intended 30 miles, but due to the cold we dropped that to 15 . . . and because I was feeling like S*** we only did 10.1 miles. Still 10.1 miles is better than no miles. Didn't keep track of our rolling time, but we did stop half way for some water, etc. for about 5 minutes.

Whew, just snuck this one in . . . if I'm going to make my goal of working out every day until the boyz challenge review (better late than never?) I'd better not wait until 7PM to do a workout! I made it, that's all that counts. And having the machine calling to me from the bonus room certainly helps!

Boy, lots to cover . . . but I'll be brief . . .

Got engaged 10/23. Bought a car (Acura TL Type-S) 3 days before a snow storm. Power was out for 2 days, lost lots of food and fridge still smells like . . . . something. Bought a new elliptical trainer. Did first workout this morning. See "Exercise" log link to the right ----> for the details. Feel much better that I worked out this morning. If I'm not going to the gym, I'm bringin the gym to me! OK, you're all caught up now. I'll try to write more detailed posts more frequently now. :-)

Happy Holidays!

Workout 12/21/06

Shortest day of the year today! That means starting tomorrow we get more sunlight!

So this past weekend, Teri and I bought our Precor elliptical trainer. I've wanted one of these since earlier late last year. I decided my gym program wasn't going so well, so I brought the gym home. Here's a link to the machine we got. NOTE: MSRP is NOT what you'll pay on the street. We got $1,000 off without even asking.
