Very nice.
What pressures you running your tyres? Don't over inflate as you'll lose the advantage of grip and the ability to roll over objects and sand.

28:19 of stairs this morning, -26c with the wind. May have to put on a second layer soon.
Leisurely bike ride on a beautiful sunny 52 degree day. Burning about 208 calories followed by a series of intense right arm curls. I figure the arm curls will put me about 3000 calories in the black. Net gain= 2792 calories.
Had my MTB club's AGM tonight so decided to ride there and ride home.
Ok, well the ride home was slightly wobbly but I made it in one piece. 16km in total.
20 minutes of wind sprints for warmup. 1/2 hour bag work to get exhausted. Then tried to do my 150 pushups, 150 situps, 1200 squats. Went OK, I only cried a little bit.
Warmed down with 15 minutes of jumping jacks (star jumps) and then ran through my kata which put the heart rate back up there, so went for a 10 minute swim.
I'm definitely ready for this grading coming up. Problem is that no matter how fit you are, they push you to see what you'll do, so for me it is about recovery between efforts and that seems to be OK.
What I'm most concerned with is the 10 (1 minute) rounds of grappling - really really tires me out and there's some big guys they'll throw at me for the weight. It will be fine, I just have to remember to pace myself.
James.
Another 29km this morning with the usual Friday crew.
Not even 7:30 here yet and I'm on my 3rd cup of coffee already. :)
Part of last night's 'workout'. Two hours of bouldering at The Adelaide Bouldering Club and a bit of mucking around campussing too :-)
Feeling strong for 53...

Hey, Bee Tee Doubleyou. Anyone do intermittent fasting? Essentially I gather it's eating your last meal at 20:00 and eating again at 12:00.
Generally I don't eat breakfast but have a coffee with two sugars at 06:30 then another coffee with another two sugars and a banana at 08:15.
I have 'first lunch' at about 09:30. 'First lunch' is 1/2 a serve of whatever we had for tea the night before.
Then I have a couple of handfuls of raw nuts at 13:00 and 'second lunch' at 14:00. 'Second lunch' is the other half of the serving of last night's tea. Tea is at 20:00.
Might change to intermittent fasting and scrap the sugar in the coffees and the banana and push first lunch out to 12:00.
Ideas? Thoughts? Motivation?
