More Excuses

I took yesterday as a rest day. I had set my clock but when it went off at 4:45, I just couldn’t get up to run in the cold. I wasn’t too tired, I had gotten plenty of sleep, I just couldn’t stand the thought of running in the cold. I know I could have gone to the Rec Center and either run around the tiny track or run on the dreaded treadmill but I just can’t stand being among all those New Year resolutioners. So it was a rest day. I was due anyway, last rest day was Christmas.

This morning it was raining so I got on my trainer this afternoon after work. I rode for 1:45 while watching a movie and talking on the phone. My trainer and bike computer gave different distances, 23.06 and 22.16. Which is right? How does that compare to road riding? Who knows, and I guess it doesn’t really matter; I burned a few calories and was soaked when I got off the bike.

On the diet note I have lost 2 pounds, only 18 to go!!! Hope I don’t blow it again this weekend.
