Today's Workout Thread

Wow, we've had temperatures of up to 40 deg C this past week.

That's hot! I bet you are riding and running in the mornings.

That's hot! I bet you are riding and running in the mornings.

Trying to.

Yesterday's ride started at 5a.m. and because of the distance only finished at 13:30 but at least most of the riding was done before it got really hot.

This afternoon's workout was a 1.5 mile trail run & one mile walk. The mulch on the trail was frozen and it sounded like I was running on corn flakes cereal.

Did a 13km LSD run on Sunday. It was -22c on Saturday, so I was a bit worried what the temp was going to be, but it eneded up being a balmy -8c.

This morning was a three person circuit workout. One person sprinted across the Quesnell bridge, while the second ran the stairs beside the pile of balls (a municupal art piece), and the third did body weight exercises.

I have been forced to live vicariously through all of you for the next 3-4 weeks while my ribs heal I hurt them in the yard when I got nearly impaled by a wheelbarrow handle...

Oh, damn. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

The coldest I've ever run in was -15c and it's not something I would like to do too often.

Yesterday was a 10k on the erg. I was definitely feeling the effects of the drinks I'd had the night before... Held pace, but the HR was higher than normal and it felt tough.

Today was 6 x 25 pushups around lunch time and 20 mins of TGU's with the 16 kg bell. I ordered a 20 kg bell, and it should arrive Wednesday, maybe in time for long cycle presses, if FedEx makes a timely delivery.

-15c is about average for morning runs here. It's all relative, in the fall +5 feels frigid, and now -5 feels tropical.

Did a 7k treadmill tempo run at lunch. I've lamented my feelings on treadmills before, and I stand by them. Vile machines.

That is insane! It got "cold" here last night, all the way down to 34F!!
