Workout # 1: Bike
Weather: Didn't matter (indoors)
Route: N/A
Time: 45 min
Max HR: 150
Avg HR: 136
Calories: 517 - 50% fat

Good Morning Stationary BIKE! Got up this morning at 5:30 AM and walked to the gym in the figid cold weather. This is what it must feel like to be Griff in good old New England! Seriously cold out there. Got to the gym and on the bike at around 6:15. Rode for 45 min and felt pretty damn good. I kinda like this early morning thing, however, I am going to have to get up a little earlier to get into the office on time.

Workout # 2: Yoga
Time: 50 Min

I really need to do this more often. My wife and I were able to do this together and I think I am going to try to substitute yoga for weight training. The Triathlete's Training Bible, my guide to this training, says weight training should be done, but I wonder if yoga is a good enough substitute. I really like the fact that you work on stretching, balance and strength all at once. Finally, with all of this training, any time I can spend working out with my wife is time well spent!

The name is perfect. You're all over this tri thing and it's good to see. BTW, it was 7 degrees this morning up here in New England. Snot freezing cold.
