I have actually worked out everyday this week in some form. I went to the gym on Monday and Wednesday where I ran and lifted weights. Tuesday and Thursday, I rode on my trainer in my basement. Hopefully I can make it to the Gym tomorrow and then a long ride on the trainer Saturday [...]

This is the farthest I have made it into the week with consecutive workouts in over 2 months. This morning I rode on my trainer to the CTS Mountain Bike Racing video. It is a good workout but it is also a sign of how far I have fallen off even in the last couple [...]
