While everyone else was out running, swimming, or cycling and enjoying the beautiful weather I was stuck at home feeling sorry for myself. My wife is using my disability to catch up on all the things she can’t do while I am out training. I don’t blame her and would do the same thing myself. It’s amazing how much you can accomplish when you are not spending 15 hours/week training. When you start adding up the hours you quickly realize the amount of time spent training equals a part-time job. Although it is not “work”. So I spent most of the day at home trying to keep the kids from screaming or hurting themselves. Fortunately this consisted of outdoor activities around the house.
I finally mustered up enough motivation to go to Koke Mill Medical Center and do the usual workout of recumbent bike x 30 minutes and the stepper x 15 minutes. I forgot my iPod so I had to sit in this giant room all by myself bored out of my skull. I also forgot my sling so after 15 minutes on the stepper my shoulder was kind of sore.
The workout did seem to lift my spirits. Hopefully I can begin to progress my workouts.
