Its been a good day for LEJOG training, Long 7 mile walk with Jack this morning, Good 1hr strong Turbo session this afternoon (beginning to get fed up with staring at walls) and then Cardiac rehab class tonight, feeling stronger and I lost 2lbs in weight last week.

The cast on my arm is beginning to smell like "dead fish"; I Have tried spraying it with Lynx but its just getting worse.
Hospital appointment for cast removal is next Monday; thank god, hopefully I will be able to go out on next Tuesday nights club run after putting extra gel padding on my bars.
Young Laura received her new bike today, only problem is she picked up a Knee injury yesterday.

Blood Pressure Check 120/73 Pulse 46bpm
Our Flights from Edinburgh to Newquay are now booked with Flybe for Friday 21st May our adventure starts with a 40 Mile round trip on the Friday Night. Bikes and kit are traveling by van and should be there upon our arrival. Again today I am severely pissed off as I can't get out on my bike. Its dry but cold and guess what no wind!!!
Sent another few emails today for hopefully more sponsor's.
Had another 45 min work out on Turbo Trainer this afternoon and will have another 45min tonight.
See Heart Rate Data for this afternoons session http://connect.garmin.com/activity/23915616 Couldn't get HR above 125 bpm due to beta blockers; I feel this is going to restrict me when on the LEJOG.
1st 2 up TTT of the season (Ice Breaker) is only 2 weeks away; entry forms are filled in and ready for posting.
I had another 50 Min Turbo Training session tonight, its amazing the difference in MAX HR Compaired to this afternoons, beta blockers have worn off.

Going to miss tonights club run its been a week since I broke my wrist.
Well its been another boring day, I wish I could get this cast off. This morning I had a long walk with Jack (My Dog) approx 6.5 Miles it snowed for a while and was also very windy but most enjoyable.
If I can plan my day it seems to go in very quickly. Tomorrow I am cleaning my winter bike full strip down so that should pass some time. I am also going to another Cardiac Rehab class at Irvine central its been a while since i attended this class but I must keep my fitness level up.
Checked BP tonight before Turbo session 120/78 and my Pulse was 43 BPM So no problems.
See Polar Data for tonight 1hr session.
