CLEAN DAY 2

SATURDAY:

Weight: 129
Sleep: 6 hrs.
Mood: Good
Temp: 35* snow
Workout: Ride Trainer, 1:40.
:30 warmup, 2x:10 tempo (HR 143) w/ :05R. 5x1:00 fast spin, Cadence 110-120.

Had a late night last night visiting family down in Highlands Ranch. Went to my nephews basketball game but missed most of it so I stayed to watch the Highlands Ranch Varsity Team play Regis. A very good game but I must say, kind of weird going to a high school game, it's been years!

I did take an hour and a half nap yesterday so I didn't feel the need to sleep in much this morning, feeling pretty energized.

Breakfast - 9:30am:
Amaranth, Coconut milk, a few walnuts, cinnamon. Herbal Tea.
Pre-ride: 5 Apricots/1 homemade bar (the carob/walnut/cashew/coconut one)
Recovery Drink: Rice protein shake (need to find something to mix this with, nasty just plain).

Breathing is a little labored, wondering if it is the walnuts, apricots or cashews. I will have to stick with just cashews for a couple of days and then add in the walnuts to see what happens.

Lunch-2:30: Quinoa with veggies and ground lamb. Cream of Broccoli soup w/coconut milk & potatoes.
Snack - 4:30: Cashew, apricot, flax, popped amaranth, brown rice syrup bar.
Dinner -6:30: Lamb & wild rice soup, couple of rice crackers & pine nuts. herbal tea.

Good ride today albeit a little short. We rode the trainers and watched the 2009 Tour de France. spent the rest of the day cooking, computer work and then watched a movie, "The Disappearance of Alice Creede". A cold and snowy day today. In bed by 10:00!
