Looking after ourselves

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

Missed my ride today but I did manage a walk to town and back. 

Car was in for repairs so dropped it off and walked home then back to pick it up. 

 

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

On a roll. Literally 😁

Managed another bike ride this afternoon.

And while it felt slow and hard garmin stats tell me one lap was a PB for time and overall  average speed is up so obviously small improvements. 

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

Another ride another time pb for an uphill segment. 

 1 week in and we are achievimg about half of our distance target but that is ok. Expect that that may take some time.   We have a goal to enter into a competition towards the end of the year so that is a carrot to keep us motivated 😁

 

I am also pleased that darling is getting back into riding. It has been over 2 years since she has been remotely interested. Just hoping we can maintain some balance this time around riding v family priorities.

@1dayatatime 

Here is an exercise discussion thread.

 

Since my pup has a fracture and with Mr Darcy in hospital there has been no walking, even of our older dog. 

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

Managed to make 75% of my distance target today. Still less the. Half of what I used to do but improving. 

Have a longer ride planned over the weekend. Kind of looking forward to it. 

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

No walking or cycling today. Have been feeling poorly today.

Would like to push myself tomorrow after lunch. Wait and see how we go 🥴😵

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

Despite both feeling heavy and tired Darling and I made the effort to do a ride on our bikes this afternoon and even did an additional lap to round up the ks' 

 

We have a goal of entering a hill climb comp at the end of the year if it is allowed to go ahead. We have a bit of work to do on fitness lol. 

 

Two weeks in and our rides are not getting any easier but they are getting faster and longer resulting in a longer distance for the same time.  

 

 

 

 

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

Missed my ride today but we did manage a short walk. Even if we had the time today I think my legs are still a bit wobbly from yesterday.  Hoping to fit a ride in tomorrow before work. 

Re: Self care- walking and cycling

Pushed myself for a ride this afternoon.

Felt sooo hard but when I got home and checked my garmin was not as bad as I thought.

I am feeling flat however after a stress spike with work yesterday. That usually takes a week or more to recover from but I am hoping that if I keep moving rather than stop it may help.
