** This is my favorite Crossfit style workout!

YOGA

Saturday

OFF

** I had work 7a-5p, went straight to a friend's fight after work
and had to rest before Sunday's big fundraiser.  **

Sunday

BIKE
92 miles in 6:05:53 at 15.53 mph

** This was the Jim Calhoun CardioRaiser.
I spun for just over a straight six hours!  **

** I used a trainer from my LBS and found it had a much greater resistance than my own.
I'm sure my trainer would have given me a faster average speed.
I'm considering upgrading my trainer since I spend so much time in my top gears.  **





Swim fast.  Bike smart.  Run hard.
