2 Hamster Miles
Quick hit at Gold’s Gym this morning. Did strength training, more abs and core, and then 2 fast miles on the treadmill. I did 7 and 8 MPH stuff, and really just burned it through. Finally, I jumped in the pool for 20 minutes of swimming to give my muscles a good stretch, and to really relieve some of the general tension. Swimming’s kind of like biking is to lots of you. It’s my “free” experience, where I can just go and do my thing for a while and not feel competitive or as if I’m in training.
So, good quick hit on all fronts.

Swimming is an excellent way to soothe sore muscles. It’s a good way for me to relieve shoulder tension(from too much computer).
I got a note a few days ago from Chris saying he was going to Labrador for a week. Not to fret folks - he’ll be back! :)
yeah, where are ya man!! i think i’ve read the “2 hamster miles” post about 15 times, trying to find a new sentence.





I’m glad to hear you are working on your recovery, too. Your schedule sounds so aggressive, but it obviously works for you. How lucky to have a pool in your gym. I hear my new gym will have one, and I’m looking forward to it.
