Observations/Intel: After a series of increasingly bad allergy days that were flattening me, I got pissed enough to spend some extra time trying to find a vaccine shot, so all that time off wasn't completely worthless. So, vaxxed up with Janssen now, so that's at least off my plate for a while. After waiting some obligatory time for both some minor related side effects of that and the allergies to cool off, even though I don't feel fully back, I couldn't wait any longer and threw on the new Saucony trail kicks I got for biking only and went for it. Air was shit for this workout, but I did manage baseline cadence quite a bit higher and even threw in a sprint at the end. Warming up took a really long time today, which was kind of annoying, but hopefully it will be better towards the end of the month. New shoes also had the kind of grippiness I was hoping for.
My diet got really funky (wasn't sure today was a go, so carb loading was definitely off) since the shot, so I've skipped the scale, but I believe I kept things pretty clean, though well under an appropriate caloric level, considering...appetite was kind of wrecked and I definitely need to lose pounds anyway, so hopefully I'll luck out and it'll be a wash...
Spent a lot more time putting some hard numbers to the biking project I have in mind, particularly as to feasibility for 2021 and it seems a lot like unless I'm really hankerin' to throw $3K at it, plus a lot more once I expand it as I kind of have in mind, it might need to be shelved for a while. I do really want to do it, however, I need to be in a lot better condition physically for it to make much sense and I also need to build basically an entire new computer system in order to run the software, which I also need to buy, I would need to process the footage in the way I have in mind...as I do not even have a capable action camera, nor have the bike tuned up, nor in any shape to get on the bike in the first place, I probably need to dial the desire down a bit and focus on being able to get back into the gym this fall...
