Lake Union run

Went for a real road run today. My first one in quite some time. It seemed like the thing to do; give me under carriage yet more time to heal and Shelley and I had plans for the day so doing something that did not require getting kitted up seemed prudent.

It was fun! I left my music at home and just enjoyed the scenery.

I did NOT go fast… (I couldn't) but I also did not slow down. Nice.

As I was about to take my first step my Garmin Forerunner 405 told me the battery was about to die so I went back in side and grabbed my cycling GPS. This meant I did not get any mile splits but whatever.  it worked great.

Thanks goodness I have a plethora of gadgets.

walk commute

If you can't ride then you walk. Again, I am so glad I live close enough to work to be able to do this.
Today I went up the Blaine St stairs, a bit longer than the Howe Street stairs but also with more flat sections. Bottom line, both of these flights are tough!

bike commute

Rode my bike to work and I'm still not feeling healed… I can't believe how long this is taking. :(

core | bike commute

I finally mustered up the will to hit my core routine again… I think it's been about 10 days since I did it last. And it was correspondingly difficult. It seems that I can miss about one week (if I have been very regular) and it's okay but more than one week (which was the case) or if I have not been regular (which was also the case) and I suffer. That's one lesson I will never learn. :(

For various reasons I had to ride my bike into work today. Normally that would be excellent but I was still trying to give my saddle sore time to heal and getting on the bike today reinforced the fact that it was still too soon to be riding anything. Bummer.

So I went home up some steep hills to get myself out of the saddle. :)
