Rollin Rollin Rollin.......
Finally...back in the groove, and boy it feels good. Got to the new gym and spin class. This class starts at 5:45 so I can get another 15 minutes of sleep! Instructor on time...good. Music good and speakers working...good. Personable but down to business...awesome! The hour flew. Kept my HR at the high end of my max and still felt really good through the entire class.
Met the running club tonight along with my friend Judy.
5 miles
45 min
Avg HR 140
Everyone was off to pizza and beer but I passed. I'm off to Vegas tomorrow for a weekend with the girls. My friend Gloria has a cousin in the hotel business and booked us a free room at Cesar's. Vegas is not favorite place (all that smoke....losing money..I think it's a little depressing), but our friend Jamie has been wanting to go for some time so we're going to make it hapen. It'll be fun with the 4 of us.
My goal is to spin in the mornings Monday through Friday, run Monday & Thursday eves/Saturday mornings with the club. I feel so much better when I pack in the cardio. I'm running very slow & low miles so injury should be a non issue. Have a great weekend.
Live passionately!

Not too slow- 9 minute pace for 5 miles sounds good and faster than you were running before. Have fun in the smoky place.
I agree, a 9 minute pace is a good pace for training, especially if you know you can run faster. That's better than trying to run 15 seconds per mile faster than you should.
And Vegas is only about losing money if you're gambling. If you're just having fun (and set a sensible limit), than you are simply paying for entertainment. This, of course, from a guy who's been in casino's like three times his entire life.
Glad to hear things are rollin rollin.
Have a great time with the gals. And your workouts should keep you sane.
Isn't it amazing that the more we pack on our plates, the better we feel? Just having a workout plan makes all the difference sometimes! Congrats on a solid pace run!!!
5:45am?!?! What a way to live passionately. I don't think even my newspaper man is up so early. :)
Last time I was in Vegas was almost 10 yrs ago when I was in college... I remember the steaks were cheap... And we lost even our petrol money so the return trip was kinda interesting! :D
Great for getting back to a plan. Vegas is way too overstimulating for me....I must be getting old!
glad you are back in the groove! a 45 minute 5 miler is awesome! enjoy vegas!
5 miles, 45 min, ave HR 140.....that's awesome!!!
Yay for better spin class!
Have fun in Vegas, and remember: you can always go see a show if you don't want to gamble.
:o)
