Mid-Week UpdateOn Monday, Martin and I worked out at the gym. Before lifting, I managed to do some intervals on the stairclimber. Afterward, the leg press was very hard. On Tuesday, I joined the group from Scott's Cycling and we headed north. But Windsor Inland Road was flooded. This prevented the group to follow the regular route. We had to turn around and find another route, but the group was confused and without directions. We were a bike ride in search of a route. Tonight, we did a slow recovery ride north of Keizer. It rained on us tonight. The roads were very wet and it was getting cold. But the rained stopped and we finished dry. So far this week, I have 47 miles in. The goal was 50 and I will not make it. Tomorrow, I will work out with Martin at the gym and then do some intervals on the trainer or the spinner at the gym.
