WX at 6 AM (11) Feb 05     35.2 (1.8)     34.0 (1.1)     29.93 (1013)     NW 18G33 RH 95

Odometer 14B: 411.0mi

Z3 first half, Z4 second half.  Average/max heart rate = 154/170

I'd planned on erging this morning, but looking at the weather report, that just reinforces having the good sense not to go outside this morning.

I wasn't sure how I was going to feel even after a day off because I've been so beat lately, but today was a good erg.  I'm feeling some basic improvements coming back insofar as I may be working about the same level, but I don't feel like I'm having to grind it out mentally as I was having to do a few weeks ago to get these times.

Today's iThink was particularly apropos: "Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd, who served a dark and a hungry god..."  The tempo and the demeanor fit this morning.
