We finally got a bit of winter here in Virginia. When snow was forecast for yesterday, we were not sure we were going to get it, or if we got it, whether it would stick or not. Well we got it and it stuck! LOL! When I got up to take the dog out this morning, it had stopped, but the ground was white. As the morning progressed, however, it began to melt and the ground is saturated with water and rapidly melting snow. What a mess! I did manage to get my yearly "snow picture" to post. I was surprised that this picture, although not the "sharpest" in terms of quality actually showed the shape of my pecs for once! LOL! For that, it goes in my progress picture section!   Anyway, I put on a pair of old sweats, boots, and a hooded sweatshirt and got out there for very wet and sloppy 2-mile walk that turned out to be rather tough on the legs. So much for "active recovery!" LOL!  Anyway, I completed the second of six scheduled 2-mile walks for the week. I also now have to make sure that I watch the diet.  Yesterday was a bad day for me in terms of the diet. I ate one good meal, but ate a LOT of sweets. Today, I've yet to eat. I'm going to make a big bowl of oatmeal at some point and have some two slices of turkey bacon with it.

Anyway, for those of you who might be interested, here is what my 3-Week InterCycle looks like. It is designed to allow me to get some "active" rest, while not allowing myself to become too deconditioned.
