Amid finding and buying a house, packing to sell a house, getting Covid and finally actually moving over the past eight weeks, my workout routine really took a hit. I finally got on the bike once again, at pretty low intensity. I also hit a full week of strength workouts for the first time in many weeks. It’s been really hard coming back from a big hit to this schedule, and even though I’m only at about 70%, it feels good.
Haven’t posted one of these in a while. Robin really kicks my ass.
First ride of the year. One down.
I did this two-hour power zone ride the other day – whoooo! – and now all the other rides in my recent history plot look like lil tiny guys.
Really great ride this morning to start my Sunday. It’s a busy week: I’m remotely attending Posit::conf in addition to the pile of regular things going on, and I’m enjoying watching enthusiastic attendees join the conference discord and say hello.
I haven’t posted one of these for a while. I enjoyed this morning’s indoor ride. It’s nice to be back on the “good” bike after being away for much of the summer.
Vacation days are great! Today I improved RideShare, my Shiny app that makes shareable ride cards from my Peloton workouts. I had to update to accommodate the new images that the API sends, and I added a clickable history to build cards for any recent ride. I don’t like the styling of these new images quite as much – they’re not as powerful-looking cycling-specific images as the old feed provided – but I’m still really pleased with what I can build with it!
