5,000m on Concept2 Model C, 21:33, 6 NOV 07, Fort Campbell KY

Bear McCreary, "Battlestar Sonatica" (admittedly an incongruous pick)

WX at 0700: 38.3 (3.5) DP 24.8 (-4.0) BP 30.25 (1024) WNW 6 RH 58

Odometer 1: 67.9mi

Z3.

I was working hard but not killer hard. It could be because I was only spinning 5000, rather than the usual 10,000. It was productive, and I even had someone comment on my form, saying like I looked like I knew what I was doing (yay me).

I was pleasantly surprised that I was cranking away at 2:09/500m at a drag factor as high as it was. Maybe I'm actually getting stronger - since I don't think I have any major changes in form lately. I'm certainly not getting any lighter.

Then I lifted, and I think I strained my upper back trying to incline press right after bench pressing heavy weight to build raw power. I'll see how I feel tomorrow, I think.

On a down side, the check engine light came on this morning driving in to the gym. Grr. As much as I want to get rid of the White Sled, I think I'm stuck with it for a while.
