Too dark to ride after work, so I rode an hour and a half on my rollers watching Seinfeld re-runs...sweat like a pig.

Skies cleared up today for a while so I decided to go for a hike. About 8 miles/2 hours. Good to be out of the house.

8 mile run, medium pace.
I just set up my new trainer today, so i tested that out for about a half hour. It seems much harder than riding outside.

Yeah the trainer gets old real quick..
I tried to study while i rode.. but i sweat all over my books..
So now I just ride like 45 minutes, and I alternate the resistance setting every two minutes while I watch TV. That's the only way I can keep my interest up.

45 minute spinning class during lunch. Lots of "climbing" intervals today.
Weather in KC on Thursday was awesome for December 9th. 55 degrees.
So got a 45 minute easy run in. Tired legs from the spin class but otherwise felt pretty good.

I find mixing it up too helps with the boredom.
Spinning on your trainer need not last as long as a typical outdoor ride since you are pushing non-stop on the trainer. I equate a 45 minute indoor spin with a 60 minute outdoor ride or about 75% the normal ride time. Works for me!

sorry guys i couldnt resist, especially after dodging hurricanes all summer, its in the 80s today here in south florida. will be doing my run after work. gotta say its a great place for training.
although its really odd to hear of people going to the beach on xmas day.
more power to you guys who gut it out in the great white north!
I went for a nice 3 mile run this morning before my Econ final. That and my usual 12 mile ride to school. Kind of a slow day, but finals will be over next tuesday.
I've got a long ride planned for my day off tomorrow, so that should be an easy 3 hours or so.
