This is a little misleading as I probably should be using the hiking setting, but Garmin Connect thinks I'm detraining as I'm not going hard enough. If the relative effort going uphill is any indicator, I am most certainly not detraining.

I was thinking I was going to run up the north wall of the Appalachian Trail from the trailhead just north of Carlisle. I didn't get to the top as I was pushing 172bpm just walking up some of the segments. Ugh. But I got out there and worked 1000 calories, so not ugh.

Work has precluded my doing any real exercise this past week, so ugh.

Wogging today just to get a run in. Otherwise I was going to bag it. I hope I can maintain some veneer of momentum. I don't think the heart rate was accurate, but maybe I'm just tired.

I am getting faster, although not necessarily by design (although drag factor 125 is a lot easier with a C-Breeze). It could be that I'm just getting stronger after starting to erg again because I have to be judicious about how much I run.

Easy run, at least by intent. Maybe not in execution as I was going a bit harder than I expected originally. No matter. At least I got it done.

Another slow run for distance and fat burn. I'm paying close attention to my knees as I could feel some pain but I felt better after about two miles.

I was not expecting a negative split on the last segment!

Much later leaving work tonight than I wanted, but I took yesterday off, so I'm not doing 10km tonight, but I did decide to crank out 8km again and sliced a good 50 seconds off the time.

I felt a lot better, which makes me think I'm getting stronger - or at least the rest of my body is starting to get used to rowing again. The lack of knee pain after working out is a nice bonus.

This is the coldest May I have seen in a long, long time.

I decided to gear up for something more, and I set the erg for 8k and saw how I felt. Frankly, better than yesterday. This is a good sign, even with the drag factor what it is. I'm really glad I invested in a C Breeze. Now that I can't really run much, I guess I need to get serious about rowing again.
