Week 1: Revenge of the Cross-training (July 12 retrospective)

How, in the course of marathon training did I end up on my back, looking up at a blue sky, obscured by my bike, complete with left foot still in the toe clip? I haven’t actually read much yet, but I know this is not recommended form for marathon training.


mountain biker brain + fixed gear road bike = hubristic downfall

My left side looks like a mountain lion went to town, but I really did a number on the other guy's left paw (er left handle bar). Clearly the bike won, bouncing right back up and finishing the workout in great form, rather than whining and yelping around for like a week.

Going really fast on the flats is a blast on this bike, but I can't get my heart rate up on the bike—which is fine since this is SUPPOSED TO BE EASY CROSS-TRAINING.
