Oh the forgotten joys...
... of crotchular numbness. Those of you who have ridden a bike, especially one with a skinny seat, know of what I speak. I've rediscovered this loveliness in the last several days while using my "stationary bike" (it's a Trek 7300 mounted on rollers so that I can "ride" indoors). But I know it will pass, once my back side is a bit more accustomed to the fit. (And, if I recall correctly, the issue is certainly more pronounced on my stationary bike than when riding outdoors; I think that's mainly due to positioning - the Trek, which is a hybrid, is more upright than either of my road bikes. Also, when outdoors, the opportunity to stand and get out of the seat, giving the derriere a break, comes frequently; standing indoors, especially on my setup, is sort of counter-productive.)
Still working on getting a bit more disciplined on the nutritional side - had a salad for lunch on Wednesday... followed by several sugar cookies. Grilled chicken sandwich on Thursday... with a side of fries and a root beer. Baby steps, right? :-)
Found an interesting website for anyone interested (and will get it up in the links section shortly) - Crossfit.com. I've only looked at it briefly but it looks like there might be some decent information available, as well as providing the ability to keep an exercise journal. YMMV.
Have a great weekend!
