yeah, it hurts. and i can already feel the soreness settling into my legs. oof.
will i do it again? hell yeah. not 'cause it's fun or thrilling or all the other things crazy people exclaim when they leave spin class. i'll do it again because it was damned hard. and i kinda like that.

on the schedule this morning: intervals. but how the heck is a mile an interval? that's like...too long to be an interval! but the schedule said 5 miles, 2 x 1600 @ 11:04 with 800 rec. here's how it went down:
1600: 14:23
1600: 11:03
800: 6:57
1600: 10:52
2400: 20:54 ( i forgot to take my split time between my recovery and cooldown)
the first half of the workout was decent but i kinda fell apart during the last half. my ipod died somewhere during my warmup and i could not think of anything decent to daydream about. all i kept saying to myself was, "when is this gonna be over already?"
the upside is that today is already gorgeous and it looks like it's gonna get up to 73. the same goes for tomorrow. hopefully i can soak up some sun to banish my pms blues.

LOL! if you didn't have the word "spin" in there i would of wondered about this post! :)
Cross training! I just started running again after a many year lay off. I love using the ARC trainer in our gym as a crosstraining. Upper and lower body - total body work out. I loved spinning a few years ago but nothing convenient to me now. It'll be great once you get used to that bike seat!!
Did you wear those padded shorts?! And aren't you glad you weren't riding on a bumpy road instead.
i am so jealous of your weather. so jealous.
and working out without an ipod? ick. you are stronger than i am.
Hi - found your blog through another running one - very interesting. Good luck in your race next week. Where in DC did you go to school? I'm a 2000 GW grad...right now my blog is just holding me accountable to my training, maybe someday soon it will be more interesting.
