Non omnino gravis
December the 1st 31.0 miles, 1,096ft, 1.49.03
December the 2nd 43.2 miles, 3,104ft, 2.50.24
December the 3rd 27.7 miles, 906ft, 1.42.27
December the 4th 25.0 miles, 1,204ft, 1.32.24
December the 6th 37.0 miles, 1,211ft, 1.49.29
December the 7th 29.5 miles, 764ft, 2.14.04
December the 8th 63.5 miles, 1,798ft, 3.32.04
15.5 hours down, 24.5 to go.
Today's Metric brought to you by Serial on Pandora, a brilliant podcast-- following the story of Adnan Syed, and his involvement in the murder of Hae Min Lee in Baltimore, Maryland. It's a really compelling story, and well told. I got through the first five 40-minute episodes on today's ride, so 7 more to go.
Also, 257.3 miles for the month, leaving (I think) 382 to go. Doable.

I have been slacking a bit this month. Only 10 hours so far. No riding at all this past weekend cost me about 7 hours. The month looks like it will finish out well. Is there a way to post a link to a Stava training log?

20 more minutes of a light spin on the trainer again tonight.

First 20 minutes on the trainer trying to stay in the drops, but it was to painful. Second 20 minutes going super easy, sitting upright.

First time since my accident that I've done 60 minutes of cycling. 40 or so easy spin (again on the trainer) and 20 in the drops. Still painful but trying to get back at it.

That's it for this week. Four more commutes and I'm done for the year.
