I got a ride with MB this morning to head to Train for an indoor, flat ride. I warmed up for 10 minutes easy, calibrated the compu-trainer and continued riding for another 50 minutes for a total of an hour. I was doing a cadence and HR combo workout.
I'm thinking it's good news that my heart rate really doesn't reach what my coach wants when I'm hitting the power numbers... I have a power test tomorrow night and a VO2 follow up test on Saturday. A lot of tests. I hope I pass! ;-)
Monica was at TCS again and it's fun to ride next to her. She is an excellent athlete, but doesn't take it all too seriously. We caught up on taxes, jobs and the fact that I noted she told me about FFC and should get some sort of credit for it. She was pleased about that!

Then I got ready for work and had a brutal day. Lots of running around, lots of meetings and lots of stress!! We are doing an update to our own offices right now- while working in them- so I've been working to make it as stress-free (for everyone else) as possible. My office is in the first phase, so I should have my desk back and computer, etc Wednesday morning. The nice thing is that I got a bigger office! Boom! I'm also back on the sunnier side of the office which is good for me.
After work, I rushed north on the train and went to Om for an hour of Beth's class. It was tough. My body is getting less and less stretchy the more I run and bike! Anyway, I know it's good for me even though it's a serious dose of humility to not be able to do the poses I once did with ease. When we hit the floor poses on our stomachs, after I few, I just let myself fall asleep. A 10 minute savasana was heavenly!
