I Am the Winner!
At least I would be if there was something to win for riding the trainer the longest! Today is cold, like windchill of 20 cold, and the workout was 4hr ride 1:30 run. The prospect of riding the trainer for 4hrs was very daunting, add to this the fact that my son has croup so a babysitter was out of the question. Yesterday it took me 3hrs to do a 2hr trainer ride. Why? Because every 10 min I was summoned to solve a dispute, clear a Barbie car accident that destroyed Lego land, feed two bottomless pits and let the dog in/out. So 4hrs was likely to take nearly 6hrs, not fun. So I decided to head off all problems by taking 30 seconds every now and again to "help" the little ones. The stash of snacks I had set aside were gone in the first 30 min of my ride, oh crap. I rode for 2hrs, ran for 45minutes on the dredmill and then back to the bike to finish my 4hrs. I was going to run 45 minutes again but called it good. If I can ride 75miles inside I can do 112 outside with volunteers and other people no problem. All in all the kids were great today, I should do something nice, something not involving cake or chocolate! Cheers!
