Spent all day yesterday shivering in a 30 degree cabin and get outside t mountain bike.  Decided to leave today instead of freezing some more.  checked out some baby buffalo in yellowstone then got on the road.

 PM: I was about to go stir crazy after sitting for 2 days so I went to the gym for a short workout. Managed .25 miles of walking on the TM at 11 min pace at the end.  Maybe I should take up race walking because I sure can't run.  Probably will see the PT about my hamstring this week but before I do tomorrow I plan to hit BC or LC Canyons on my road bike.  Anyone is welcome to join me.

Road up Big Mountain instead of BC or LC because I figured it would be a bit warmer.  I flew up Emigration because I had a huge tailwind which meant coming down I would get the wind in my face.  A guy passed me as I was descending Little Mountain so I latched onto to him and we traded off breaking the wind until we got to the zoo.  Perfect day for a ride.  I love the greenery.

Bike and stairmaster.  I am considering not playing softball today to avoid aggravating the hamstring.  Of course anyone can hobble around the bases but when it comes down to it, is rec softball really worth delaying the recovery.....?  If only I could hit home runs or strikeout at every at bat.

30 minute bike and 6.5 hard miles on the stairmaster.  While my running fitness is deteriorating my stairmaster/bike fitness levels are coming back.  Great but not so great.

I skipped out on softball last night which was probably a good thing because we lost 25-2.  "The other team was really good."  Excuses are dumb.

60 minutes on the bike.  5 minute warm up then 11 x 5 (2 off, 3 on).  First 7 were at about 275 watts and last 4 were at ~305.  They about killed me.

I had to jog 1/4 mile yesterday because I was late to an appointment.  That was a very bad idea because now my hamstring is super sore....I am the worst at fixing injuries.

50 mile loop going from Deer Valley, past Jordanelle, through Kamas, through Peoa, through Brown's Canyon and back through Park City on highway 224.  Perfect weather for a ride.
