So glad that you ladies have kept it going.
Vantreesta: I don't know how or why I adjusted to Helen's opposite seasons so quickly, but I did. (and I thought myself very "cool" for knowing someone in Australia - just be careful if you pocket dial her ... the time difference is about 12-15 hours ... depending on the time of year. . .
Don't ask me how I know!!!! And, I must add, I was not so good with time difference till Helen said: Just think of it as 12 hours - close enough.
) I'm sorry I can't join you and Lili in your love for Halloween. I'm not a fan. . . . Never have been. Probably because I'm not creative, don't like horror films/movies, or the macabre-ness of it all. I know it's not real. I dunno! It's me. Oh and this year? I've been CALLED FOR JURY DUTY on Halloween. How appropriate (for me!)
I sure hope your dizzyness goes away. I suffer from Vertigo, so I can definitely relate.
Helen: Poor dh. But it sounds like he's sort of improving? Thanks for getting us started. Small steps! so true. I should remember that.
Lili: I think from the Aug. thread? But I missed that you're doing a race. When is it? I alwasy admire runners like you and Daphne who just decide and train and do those runs. I am a wanna be runner when I feel like it (and hasn't been the case in a couple of years.) !!!!!
Waves to anyone reading. On to my favorite subject:
ME, ME, ME:
9/1/2022: Power zone endurance ride (60 mins.) with CDE,
5 mins. Post ride stretch
9/2/2022: 3 hours Pickleball (delightful weather! great company - almost marked this as a rest day - but then remembered I played Pickleball. And
YES! it counts. I just didn't do any bike ride!!!!)
9/3/2022: Power Zone ride 45 mins. Hip Hop with Denis,
30 minutes PZ ride with Matt,
5 mins. PR stretch
I'm back into a power zone challenge. I have to plan my weeks because this upcoming weekend is my Maine Lighthouse tour. I have to be sure to get all my rides done first and have enough energy next week to complete the week so as not to let my team down.
Then on Sept. 12th, a rowing challenge begins. Keeps me on the straight and narrow.
I'm not keen on hip hop, but I didn't really notice the music listening to denis's instructions and form pointers. Oh and his stories.
He does manage to pick songs with a pretty decent driving beat too.
The new Power zone Pack website (where we check off the rides we have done) has revamped and changed. We used to be able to uncheck our rides (if we marked the wrong one), but they changed that feature. I had checked off CDE's ride (although there was the choice to do Matt's 60 mins. ride as well), but hadn't done it yet. Tried to UNcheck it and I couldn't. I checked with the admins and could do either and they would count but I decided to do CDE's since I had already checked it off. I'll get plenty of Matt during the challenge. Of that? I'm fairly certain!!!!
Ok, babbling on a Sunday morning. I am thoroughly enjoying the Holiday weekend (here in the USA). Make it a great day!
Here's to September and a good month.
