02/06/28 a.m. 33:56 run in RCP (~3m). AHR: 173; MHR: 184; Recovery: 66. Okay, humid as all hell out this morning. I am one wet boy. :-p Run went well, calf is doing better, though still (annoyingly) tight. Slightly. Good steady pace for the most part. Beginning (downhill) was faster, back was slightly slower. Split was at 16 minutes, so about a minute or two slower on the way back.

02/06/20 p.m. 43:10 run in RCP (~4m). AHR: 176; MHR: 188; Recovery: 50. Much better run this time, despite my quads not liking me 'cause I'm making them work again. ;-) Down to the Lincoln and back again, kept the pace slower. I think I actually ran further than last time, but it was a slightly different route at the end, so I'm not entirely sure. The pace was so much better this time, I just said 'screw it, I'm running at my own pace thankyouverymuch' and stayed at the back of the pack. Whee!

02/06/18 p.m. 41:59 run in RCP (~4m). AHR: 176; MHR: 193; Recovery: 60. Better run than last week, calf is much better. The frontrunners group is nice to run with. I push myself (obviously, from those heart rates!), but turning around early is fine. As it was I ran about 4 miles, which was good. Still trying to get used to this running in the evenings thing, but I'll get there! At least I'm out and running again.

02/06/10 p.m. 19:28, biked to Petco and back (~ 2.8 miles). AHR: 151; MHR: 176. The trip up the hill to Petco is worse than the hill on the way back. But the way back has an 8lb bag of litter and two 7lb bags of litter. OUCH! Not quite sure which of the sides was worse. Either way, it's faster than taking the bus, and cheaper than a taxi, so I do it.


02/06/10 p.m. 44:07, biked home from work (~ 8.2 miles). AHR: 144; MHR: 169. Good ride home, if warm and humid out. Cooling down nicely (me, not the weather) and preparing to head out to the pet store to get food and possibly litter. Whee!

02/06/10 a.m. 34:59, biked to work (~ 7.6 miles). AHR: 148; MHR: 171. Nice ride in, not too warm, not too difficult. We'll see how it feels by the end of the week. ;-) Forgot to log it this morning, so it goes on this afternoon.

02/06/11 p.m. 21:09 run in RCP (~2.5k). AHR: 158; MHR: 170; Recovery: 61. Had to give it a short run at recovery pace(-ish) to get over the pulled muscle from last Monday's abortive run in Wilmington DE. Did end up walking up one hill 'cause the uphills cause soreness in the calf still. It was much better than the day I zapped it, though, and I suspect after a few short runs this week I should be fine. Also went riding around a lot this afternoon, about 8 miles all told, all over Dupont and downtown for the Pride festival, as well as a trip up via the park to City Bikes, then home. Will do some more when going grocery shopping this evening, too.

02/06/02 p.m. 52:39, biked home from D's place (~ 8.1 miles). AHR: 148; MHR: 183. Tough trip this time - lots of headwind on the flat sections, slowing us considerably. Showed D how to bike up to my place and back. Having made some converts to the bike, I anticipate using it more now.

02/06/01 p.m. 33:43, biked to D's place (~ 7.9 miles). AHR: 158; MHR: 178. Hammered it more than necessary to get down here - wasn't sure how long it would take (been so long since I did it on my own!). Made good time, chest felt less tight on this ride than earlier this afternoon.


02/06/01 p.m. 1:44, biked from R's out past little falls and back (~ 17.2 miles). AHR: 134; MHR: 169. Nice ride out the towpath with R this afternoon, post lunch. Chest was feeling mildly annoyed when I came back (exercise induced asthma? let's not even contemplate that now...), but otherwise was a wonderful ride out and back.
