On the "real" bike again

128kg - Friday 12th September 2008 (Carey Main)

I had a awesome week and was very motivated. Here are a few things that helped.

Reading - Every second counts - Lance Armstrong
Almost at a 30kg total lost
Polarpersonaltrainer.com - Polar has got a new feature on their website called challenges. You can create and enter various challenges which logs your progress everytime you upload your data to the website from your polar. It's awesome!!!!

I haven't been on my MTB (or any real bike) for about 6 weeks. So yesterday I went and did 2 laps of the 5km Elliott centre night race. It was hot and I struggled but decided to race on Sunday. So today I went to the Sunnyvale MTB race. They had a 65km, 35km and 15km option. I have done the 35km race before and knew what was coming and that I am not currently MTB fit so I decided to do the 15km ride with my friend Martin. It was awesome and just long enough.

Will post results soon.

The weight dropping is going but a bit slow. I think it will pick-up now that I'm back in routine.

I also went to Dr Paul Wannenberg on Friday just for my monthly check up. My blood pressure has dropped quite a bit which is good. I also ask Paul to do some test on me which is just precaution especially after reading Lance Armstrong's book so they took some blood and will check various things including cholesterol, cancer, etc. Results will be out on Tuesday!!!!

Chat later!
