Today is Tuesday 12 July 2011.
morning HR = 51 bpm (fully recovered?)
Weight (still not really losing as I expected!) - 178.6
Body fat = 10.2 %
Since May 25th i've gone from 7 hours of training in the trailing 30 days to 47. That's what you call a "rapid increase in training". Sleep has not really increased, but i'm sleeping in my office every evening and that makes me feel more "monk like" and the best way to harden-the-f&*k- up. Been eating as clean as possible too
I'm watching the tour this month too. Yesterday was a training day and I just heard phil ligget say that the first hour of today's flat stage was done in 52 km/hour (32 mph)...an all time tour record. and I thought they'd cleaned up the sport too. Ok - need to take off on my 2.5 hour bike ride, but first a summary of the past week:

- still sore from yesterday. Swam from La Jolla shores in the DeSoto "speedtube" pants. for about 30 min just to get the blood flowing. did that after work and it was nice. For the first time I saw like 30-40 (at least) sharks...http://www.sandiego.org/article/Visitors/476
Sunday 10 July 2011
Rode 100 mile bike ride in 6 hours (17 mph) up to Dudley's bakery and back with David Mandel, Julie Birchall, Bernie and Jake. Hot on the way up the hill, fast on the way back. Took tons of salt tablets and managed not to cramp. Felt mostly good the whole time. Took it very easy on the 78 hill into Ramona (last place) and did the hill around 9 mph. Felt better riding old julian road into Santa Ysabel. we stopped for like 30 min at Dudley's after the 15 stop at the Arco in Ramona. Too much stopping
