I admit I'm restless... I mean, isn't that a known fact already!?
I was so restless when I first moved here... I got cranky almost every night when I got home from work. Finding the north forest mtb trail saved lives... mine and Casey's (I could just kill someone when I get cranky :-p) and getting into the routine of climbing Tue and Thur nights at the community center made things even better. I felt I was getting a lot stronger and that's an AWESOME feeling. Three weeks of moving across country has taken all the strength out of me. Let me be off track for one minute here, climbing is such a hard sport to keep up with... I mean, I don't need to bike twice a week at least to be a good biker, but if I don't climb for a week... my hands would become so week... not mentioning the flash pumps that just come so fast.
Days get shorter, biking after work is not an option anymore... I started taking spinning class at the gym on Monday and Wednesday night. I have bad knees and biking seems to be the only safe thing to do... plus, if not for a pushy instructor, I would get so bored spending 1+ hr in the gym. Sometime, if I was late for the class, I would run on the track for 45min-1hr but i know how bad my knees can get and try to avoid all that. I started doing my own routine of conditioning for skiing as well.
But now, the school is like a ghost town with all the students leaving for winter break... I have nowhere to go (CC is closed for climbing as well) I'm RESTLESS!!!! Call me obsessive, but I'm constantly worried couple of weeks from regular routine will take a toll on my climbing and worst of all skiing as well... For God's sake, we only get 4 days of skiing even we spend all the free time taking turns in Salt Lake.
I need to be more creative, maybe take a run outside or do yoga at home. I need to start doing things rather than feeling bad... OK, that's the plan!!
