Turbo to the rescue

My calf didn't feel too bad when I woke this morning but listening to the howling wind and looking at the temperature made me think, today wasn't worth the risk or the pain of venturing out. My calf could do with an extra days rest. Fortunately a good sweaty turbo session brings you to life so I jumped on my bike for the first time in a few weeks. 10 minutes in and I thought I'd lost all my fitness as it seemed harder than I remebered. Then I checked the resistance guage and it had been cranked up - those meddling kids (quote from Scooby doo)! Got the setting back to normal and my wee legs were spinning to their hearts content. 45 minutes later I slid off the saddle and headed for the shower. It had certainly helped with getting my heart rate up and the temperature in the room was hot which is good practise. But tomorrow, subject to not being snowed in, I'm off for a longish run and an even longer one on Sunday. I just hope I don't freeze to death in the process. Have a good and safe weekend folks. Wrap up warm and don't be going out unless you need to!
