Lazy Fatboy and The Painful Knee

Had a very worrisome weekend with sore legs from Friday and painful knees and a popping right knee on Saturday and Sunday. The knee still hurts/feels uncomfortable. That combined with the late night yesterday means i slept in late today and did not wake up for my early morning run. So woke up at around 9 and went to the office on my cycle instead. Was staying on low gear so that my knees wouldn’t feel stressed. That’s about it. Hope my knees are ok and i can resume running as normal as soon as possible.

Stats For The Day

Late

Uneventful cycling day, today wasn’t such a drag prolly cause i had my cell with a good selection of tunes with me. Started late though at 5:30, so by the time i was finished sun was well up. Said hi to banda’s mom and dad who were doing their morning chores. Good hang of the gears now and good cadence too, uphill just kills me and my back.

Stats For The Day 

Tedium

Another tedious day of cycling. Somehow cycling in a lap to me is very boring. I love to explore new routes when im on a cycle, so going around the same route like 8 times seeing the same faces and places every lap is tedious. BTW gotta get air filled in the tires, and gotta get my nails clipped.

Stats For The Day

Long Day

Good cycling today at a standard cadence. Got rid of the back pack and the back pain was in check too. Mouth got really dry and i got really thirsty during the fourth lap(should i get a bottle?). Traffic was good too, less compared to my earlier encounter. Came home and finished up with a 3km walk, worked up quite an appetite, must fill the void ciao.

 Stats Of The Day

Morning Traffic

So the first day of cycling after a looooong time. Thought i’d do ten rounds around the colony but quickly realized that would mean 15km on my first day and immediately dismissed it from my head. Then thought of 5 rounds and finally settled on 4 as a modest reintroduction to cycling(Besides my back was hurting like a bitch (is something wrong with my posture i wonder. or is the backpack messing the form up?) ). In any case was done with the 4 rounds with half of each round being downhill and the other half uphill so one could say a flat track as they compensate each other. Anyway am thinking about rest days(overuse injuries weighing heavily on the mind). Decided to take saturday and sunday off instead of just sunday. BTW traffic on the circuit in the morning(walkers) is as bad traffic in the city at rush hour. Hehehehe must have given them something to ridicule about by riding opposite to the flow with my form fitting Adidas trainer tee. Anyway have fallen little behind on my daily quota of sleep for the last couple of days. Guess its time to catch up.

Stats of the day

Old DTB

So finally got the dust of old faithful DTB only to realize that she is out of shape and needs some TLC pronto. So dropped her off at the mecahnic who quickly sold me on the idea of a complete refitting for her which would mean my planned ride for tomorrow is a hoop dream. Anyway she’ll be back by tomorrow afternoon so things are looking up that front. Guess i’ll just have to get my run on for tomorrow.
