Let's Talk Exfoliation

I took the day off Thursday and we celebrated our anniversary. I took Gerlinde to the Spa and we enjoyed several hours of pampering. The deep tissue massage I got was pretty good. The pedicure and facial were also not bad. Never had those before, why should only women get spoiled like that? I am sure my well taken care of footsies will allow me to lower my tempo pace by 5 sec/mile or so. And my face is sure to look better in those race shots.

Still want a hug Vic? Don't worry guys, Gerlinde got the eyebrow waxing and make-up demonstration by herself. So my metrosexual credentials are limited.

Thursday evening I did ride 18 miles at 19 mph with a 144 avg HR. The last 5 miles were with a peloton, inclusive of a sprint finish over the final 2 miles.

Saturday after Lunar I am on a plane for foreign lands again. Maybe back on Friday next week, maybe gone longer. We shall see.

Achilles upgraded to a "B" from a "C". We started with an "F' 9 weeks ago. Once I reach "A" level, I'll lace up the running shoes again.
