9 on the bike

August 4th, Thursday at 2:00 p.m.

After careful consideration I opted for a bike ride today to give my sore calf one more day to rebound. Things are getting rapidly better, thankfully.  I completed 9 miles on the bike in about 48 minutes with 8 x 50 pedal surges in the Dr. Mirkin mode.  It was a pleasant ride on a pleasant afternoon in Jackson. I finished feeling exhilarated and satisfied with a solid aerobic effort.  There were no negative effects on my legs.

Off to xc practice tonight where I plan to add some core work with the Liberty boys.

Stats –

I-Mad – 0

  1. Glad to hear you were able to ride the bike with no ill effects. Hope it’s an indication that your calf is on the mend. A reminder that our reunion is coming soon … it’s August 20th. Sure hope you will be able to make it. Remember, we are in the room that has better acoustics … much quieter. Hope to see you there my friend.

    1. Thanks Otis,

      I think I got lucky this time. It seems to be healing very quickly.

      I am opting out of this mini-reunion. Please say, “Hello,” to everyone for me and have a great time. Take lots of pictures for the Class of ’61 site. I will participate vicariously.

      Be well,

      Rob
