BIKE 10 miles only in 43 mins
SWIM -missed it to help LA with discussions
I woke up briefly at 2am to pee and saw a text from BE, saying it was gonna be too cold for him and he wasn't going to ride. Cold? Huh?
I woke up later in the morning, slept in a little to benefit from the planned later start 630am, and checked the temps. 37F. WHAT?! When did that happen? Well since I was riding solo, I took more benefit and waited for the sun to come up and spend some time with LA. Him and Sugar like to sleep in, but I gotta ride!
I leave later than planned after finding some gloves, brrrrr, it's cold but not bad. My fingers burn a bit, but I don't seem to be getting progressively colder. So I decided to ride one interval at a time, and not decide on the next one until the current one was finished. But my head is distracted, and not by the cold. I kinda left LA after a back-n-forth of words and I was unsettled by it. With this I was able to make a 3-reason decision -- cold, distracted by the morning, and short on time because we had places to be. I turned around after one interval.
It was worth going - there was the beautiful fog in the park that changed every lap as the sun come up over the trees and it wisped away. There was one point in the southern lap, in which the orange sunny fog was contrasted against the blue shaded fog and the silvery green grass beneath it. Wow.
I wore the chest HR today, it's not a great comparison yet but so far -- today's average interval HR was 129 at a time of 18:35. Previous laps with the 245 wrist were: 124 in 17:43, 126 in 17:44.
Old Garmin wrist: 124 in 18:24, 127 in 18:12, 131 in 18:01, and 132 in 18:03 So here the garmin wrist seems to be doing OK.
