about alarm clocks...

I got in a solid 2 hours on the bike. I was hoping to make it an honest 2hrs and a 1/2, but the house Christmas activity is calling- yeah good ol' quality time with the kids at the Mall. CAn't wait to get down there. I think I'll do mile repeats and time myself around the centre court of Mayfair. My parents used to mall walk- why not add in the obstacles of hairried shoppers Christmas shopping. This will be great for my agility.

I planned to get in a lot earlier... like 7:00 am, but that didn't happen. I just rolled over and slept another hour. I'm happy to enjoy this for now- but on the bike this a.m. I also told myself that I would not be forgiving come February... and maybe jsut a little bit in January.

Watched more of the Gray's Anatomy- and I found myself crying on the bike! Oh dear, am I ever sensitive. I think this has a lot to do with just going goin going for so long.

The 2 hours were very solid- and I've adapted to the (dis) comfort of the bike - before I would need to stand up every 9 minutes, at least, to releave my crotch- but I was saddled down the whole time. I had a fairly good cadence too- but it was a slack work out- I wasn't sweating all that much. I also spent much more time down in the aero position (fixated on my computer screen)

Nutrition: I've decided that I'm going to log my nutrition as well- as I try to streamline more and more towards the natural food world... like no more school cookies!

- As my hand blender broke- I drank a Vega- shake. I'm actually starting to like this powdery drink. 1/2 a banana (before the workout)
- Drank gatorade, water and 2 squares of Elevate Me bar during the ride
- Ate a huge bowl of my yummy heritage cereal w/ soy milk afterwards with some juice and yerba mate.

I really want to run today- but I think I'm just going to lavish in that sensation and do my let exercises, or else I'll pool run in Victoria.

C'est tout.

off to the mall. yipee!
