Last weekend I signed up for the free trial of Zwift and rode on Sunday. I wasn't able to ride on Monday or Tuesday, then when I went to use it on Wednesday, it didn't work. Things weren't connecting up. I was tired so I figured I'd just leave it.

Thursday, I tried again, and it worked!

So Thursday and Friday I rode my trainer with Zwift for about half an hour each evening.

I've still got to figure out a few things with it ... and I need to arrange something so that I can reach my laptop when I ride. But it's amusing! And I've ridden with it three times, so at least I'm on my bicycle.


Today, Saturday, I decided to take a break from the trainer and go for a 3.1 km run outside.

Today reached a sunny, relatively calm high of 13C and I ran along the beach ... blue sky, blue water, crashing waves. I needed that.

Distance: 3.16 km
Elevation: 25 m
Moving Time: 22:45
Elapsed Time: 22:57
Pace: 7:11/km


Then I went to see Rowan in the Rehab Unit of the hospital, and we went for a walk to the local park. Mid-walk we sat and talked and looked around and watched the people go by.

Distance: 1.40 km
Elevation: 2 6m
Moving Time: 20:49
Elapsed Time 45:39
Pace: 14:51/km


It's good to walk with Rowan again. He's still got a way to go ... many challenges ahead. But at least he's upright and moving!
