I think I can….I think I can…I think I can…
Another cold day but at least it is staying daylight a little longer each day. Dusted off the inline skates and off I go.

After several hours of sweating doing yard work (Temp about 85 degrees with dew point around 71) I decided to go for an inline skate to do some additional sweating before the Red Sox /Yankees ballgame at 4:00.
To make this skate more interesting, I strapped on 5lb ankle weights on each foot, wore a backpack with a 25lb plate and carried 5lb dbs in each hand.
I make it about 1.5 miles in about 13 minutes with I hit the wall. So I skated back home and dropped off the backpack and dbs and skated off with just the ankle weights. Managed to do almost 3 more miles. Wicked tiring!

Termp 90 and humid. Sunny and sticky. Should just cut and paste the same info from the last few days. Good skate. Tough staying hydrated in this heat. All body parts are feeling OK.

Temp 90 and humid. Sunny but hazy. Same weather as the past few days but hey that’s summer right? It seemed to hot to run so I did the inline thing. I did feel it a few miles in but carried water to drink and douse so it turned out OK.

Good skate. Little traffic no rain. Nice!
Workout:
Avg Speed 8.5 MPH Max Speed 15.6 MPH. Nice evening although a bit windy. Using inline skates with slow bearings kinda like a restrictor plate in NASCAR so building speed is tougher than normal. Very satisfying. I’m done for today. Good night all.
