December 20, 2009,
Major snow storm outside. We had over 24 inches. Nothing to do but bike. Got on the bike at 8 am and got off after the 1st quarter of the Jets game at 1:45. Watched the Spinervals 26.0 which is a 100 mile ride. Today was easier than the two hour ride I did the other day. Didn't hurt. Guess when you are following a workout it goes faster as you are more focused and constantly changing gears.
This was the most I have biked in a week either indoors or outdoors. Will see how I feel over the next few days. I think I am going to go back to 5 bike days and try running easy and doing core strength exercises on the off days. Right now I have been biking 6 days with one day off. See if running hurts.
Total Distance: 95 miles
Total Time: 5 hours and 45 minutes
Total Weekly Distance: 302 miles (6 days riding)
Total Weekly Time: 19 hours

About Me
- Phil Benson
- I am 64 years old and have been a visionary my whole life. I saw Frank Shorter win the Olympics in 1972, and I said I want to run a marathon. Since then I have run 50. I watched the Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii on TV and I said I want to do that. 3 years later I finished the Iron man in Hawaii. I was 45 at the time. I watched all of the Tour de France this year,2009,and I said I want to do that. Unable to compete in the Tour, I will do the same miles they do on the same days in July. Can I do it? The saying goes "Man can achieve what the mind can conceive".
