Last week my mom called. My christmas present was delivered. It came in too big of a box for her to want to wrap under the tree & she thought it was too heavy to lift. So.... she called me & told me to pick it up, I could have my christmas present early!
You know what that is!!! My new bike trainer!
I was so excited & with the drama continuing between Kevin & I, I decided to take a shot at putting it together myself yesterday. Decided against figuring out the whole how to put a bike on it part until today.
my beautiful white & pink specialized dolce elite! |
After a few tears, and a u-tube video search I managed to get my bike on the trainer, without the man! HA, take that! I then rode for 43 minutes while watching my DVRd Desperate Housewives from Sunday night. This thing is gonna be awesome. It wasn't too loud, it was a nice smooth ride, and will certainly make improving my cycling over the winter much easier! One question, am I supposed to be shifting gears to make it harder at times? I can't wait to actually try out one of the spinervals dvds i have!
Running? I didn't go again today. The knee is starting to feel better, but my anterior tib is tender. I've been wearing my compression socks and it seems to be helping, oh and using that foam roller. I'm going to aim for my tempo run tomorrow, hopefully all goes well!
As for the Rev Abs
Lucky girl is.....
Amber @ This is the life!

Awesome! Looks like fun . . . especially since you can catch up on your DVR'd shows (bonus!). Hope your knee gets better and you can get back out for a run soon.
Awesome! I'm hoping I get a bike trainer for Christmas! It was the #1 item on my list :)
I am totally jealous of your bike trainer!!!! Oh, and congratulations to the winner!

Congrats Amber!!! Love the bike trainer. I want a bike so badly so I guess I need one of those first before I get the trainer :)
