worked at home yesterday - had to move a piano around the for the carpet installers - I slept late (6:30) - carpet guys were done pretty early, so used my lunch hour to put furniture back in place. At 4:30 I got on the bike trainer and watched a tivo recorded episode of '24' while doing 15x90sec big gear 60sec rest. I followed it up with a 1 miler on the treadmill, building to 6min/mile pace. I actually felt pretty good for the workout - cold was getting better.
today I ran trails after work, hoping to find the bike pump I lost after crashing the other day - lo and behold, I found it! I also found some new trails and got a better view of the trail system in before the leaves on the trees and bushes block everything out. I did a 2.5 mile tempo run, but my Garmin was on the fritz, so I don't really know how fast I was going. I kept my heart rate between 155 and 162. Felt pretty good, but knew I was pushing it with my cold recovery. Coughed up a lung when I got back to the car, but feel ok now.
thinking about doing a metric century ride tomorrow "taxing metric" - hilly 62 miles right around tax season. Temperatures are going to be in the low 30s with a 10-15mph wind, so I'm not 100% sure I'll do it. See how I feel in the morning.
The week has been terrible for swimming, but swimming would really set my cold back, so I'll just have to wait.
