Sunday, Monday -- Five Weeks

Sunday, May 4 -- Peter Johnson, 3 mile route. Storming, rain/wind. We hauled out our foul weather gear. This seems to work for the foul weather. 228 lbs, 30%

Monday -- Five Weeks

Set up the Schwinn 564, tweaked the cycle computer. I think the wheel dia. setting is not accurate? 2123 -- and should be 2100. 21.5 approx. miles, 12.5 mph avg. 1 hr. 45 min.

We totally crapped out at the 18 mile mark. Didn't wear warm enough clothing, got cold -- which is part of the crap out. Windy, The climbing is arduous. Youngs River Road to the falls, Olney and into Astoria on Hwy 202, Wireless Road and return home. Last climb up Peter Johnson almost got me off and walking. I should pay attention to what I'm wearing to keep warm, hydrate, probably wouldn't hurt to eat first.

Followed the ride by a protein smoothie. 227.8 29% Tues. AM -- 225.2 30%

This ride is going to take some recovery work . . . But it feels good!

Turned in the Bg data at Camp Rilea -- testing 4x / day for a week. My readings are where we want them. Diet and exercise are working! We can skip the meds.

LET'S PAY ATTENTION TO THESE HARD WON GAINS ! ! ! LET'S NOT BACK SLIDE INTO SLOTH FOR WHATEVER REASON ! ! ! IT'S OK TO TAKE DAYS OFF, BUT STAY ON TRACK ! ! !
