5.1 miles on 41 minutes outside.

Spin class.

5 miles on the TM in 42 minutes.

I am so tired today!  I could barely spin without falling asleep today.  I have found that my body is now on automatic pilot when it works out.  It just knows what to do when all circuits of energy are down.

Do you think people would look down on you if you fell asleep on your trainer? Even if you were still spinning?

Burt, I get mad at the girl that read during spinning class. So yes, I think people would look down on me. They would probably stop class and see if I was okay.

Was it you that was saying some girl came in to class 30 minutes late and then asked to use the instructor's bike?

From Bec on Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 14:10:14 from 76.23.55.210

No, but that would happen. What in the world are some people thinking?

Burt, I think that was Toby, but it was probably the same girl that reads in our class! Weirdos! Becca works to hard to ever really fall asleep :)

Becca, sorry I ditched class this morning, but 12 miles and spin just made me tired - had to choose one or the other. Next week is the 1/2, you should come!!! However, the next week I'll be back to spin :)

Oh yeah. It was Toby. I've only gone to spin once. Great workout.

nice job on the run & spin sandwich. just wear sunglasses next time and that way nobody will know if you are asleep.

From Bec on Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 15:10:53 from 76.23.55.210

HAHAHA! Thanks Allie! Will do!

You're a running-work-out machine,,,way to put on auto-pilot! Good thing they don't give out "moving violation" ticket for sleepy spinner! :) It's okay as long as you don't snore!

someone READS during spin?? HOW????? do y'all not do hill climbs and stuff? spin is an intense workout. i would be sweating on my book so much that the words would no longer be legible; it would be like reading in a rainstorm.

From Bec on Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 20:26:30 from 76.23.55.210

Smooth,

It was pretty bad today. I really wanted to go out in the hall and sleep. I had to talk myself through that entire class. It only took two hours of working out to wake up today!

KP,

I don't know how anyone reads during spin. We do hill climbs, we even turn the lights off! She sits by the door so she can have the light from the hallway. Hmmm, I think a nice solution to this problem would be to go in the cardio room and sit on one of those bikes!

bec-- are you having a "julie" moment? You sound like me!! : D Last week I slept while running in my ski goggles. No one noticed.

From David on Tue, Apr 13, 2010 at 17:26:44 from 146.86.240.22

Well getting about 4 hours of sleep does not contribute positively to that either.

We need to go spinning again... Except I will always win the sweat puddle competition ;)
