Antoinette and I went riding again. Over the weekend, we bought her some SPD peddles and shoes. And, I even order a Garmin Forerunner 305 and bike speed/cadence sensor for her bike. She really likes riding.

I have been such a total and complete slack-ass. I have not done any real working out or even walking in 3 months. But, that is all about to change. My fiance has decided she wants to loose weight and get in shape. Yesterday, she wanted me to teach her how to use my Bowflex but I explained that was mainly for toning and that she needs to do some cardio exercises in order to loose fat. So, she went out to the garage and used the jump rope for about 5 minutes.

Then, she asked about the other bicycle I have. (When I bought my Trek Valencia, I took the seat and pedals from my Nishiki and put them on the Trek.) So, I aired up the tires of the Nishiki and installed the seat and pedals from the Trek. I then setup the rollers with the front fork stand, adjusted the seat for her and let her ride for a little while. She rode for about 15 minutes. I asked if she wanted to ride down the street, which she did. We rode to the end of the street and she decided she wanted to ride around the block. She ended up riding around the block 3 times.

And, we are planning on walking tonight - as long as the weather permits. I know it is so much easier to maintain a fitness program if you have someone doing it with you.

The last time I walked was January 30th. First, there was bad weather in the 'Plex - snow, sleet and temperatures in the teens. Then, I moved and had to deal with packing and the actual move and then unpacking and I've just been really tired from doing that.

So, last night was the first time I've walked in over a month. And, there's a walking trail that runs behind the house we moved into. Very nice.

The weather has been pretty bad the last couple weeks. Temps in the teens most of last week with snow and sleet. Yesterday was almost just as bad. Granted, last weekend was great and I should have been walking then. But, we've been kinda busy finding a house. And, there's a jogging trail right behind the house we're moving into so I won't have any excuses. Not to mention, I'll be able to get a treadmill now.

I was supposed to walk last night, and just didn't. My left calf - the tibialis anterior, the muscle that runs along the outside front of the lower leg, along the shin - has been tightening up really bad - also known as anterior shin splints or just shin splints, so I decided to take it easy tonight. I barely even walked a mile. But, instead of my left calf giving me trouble, it was the right.
