I also felt the need to bike into the new year so I did a roller session; would have loved to be outside but the roads might be icy. |

| Regular  130    Albany, NY |  Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! So I went to a bike shop today just to start looking at pedals and shoes and other gear...and I asked if they had any used tri bikes for sale.  They did - a Cannondale for $600 (I don't know what kind).  I was so excited until I sat on it, and it was like, 2 inches too high for me.  They tired adjusting so many things, and nothing...just wasn't meant to be.  So disappointing.  On the upside, I came away with a pair of my first bike shorts which should make things much more comfy.    |

Bike fit is the most important thing with looking for a bike. Never let a bike shop talk you into a bike that does not fit properly. Congrats on the bike shorts. You should feel a big difference with your comfort on the saddle. |

It's just not worth it. |

Instead of getting out for a run I stayed in and did Pilates. brrr...no kidding...add an active snow machine and 5 inches of fresh powder blowing in your face and that's Syracuse right now. I couldn't bring myself to walk the 1.5 miles to the pool, so I stayed in and did a videotape and rowed. Tomorrow is early enough to walk back to campus to work/workout. 11 days of vacation passed, still not long enough... |

| Veteran  147   |  Subject: RE: Artemis's Group - FULL! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!! Unfortunately, I missed getting in on the January challenges, but I think my head is screwed back on now, and I have thought about some goals for the month for our mentor group.   Since I haven't been doing any swimming lately and need to work on my run, they will focus around that. So... January goals are: 1. Swim at least 2x per week 2. Run at the feildhouse track at least 1x per week for 20-30min 3. Loose 1 lb per week. (4 lbs in Jan) My back has been giving me problems again lately, (SI issues as soon as I attempt running) so I need to get to the Chiro tomorrow before it gets any worse or I won't be running at all in Jan.

I don't like the cold at all, I guess I'm spoiled by being in TX. |

Looking at our extended forecast these temps will be with us for a while and winds stay over 10mph until Thursday or Friday. If I want to run this week I may have to just suck it up. |

More power to all of you who brave it - I'm mentally training myself to be ok on the treadmill because I REFUSE to go out in the wintery conditions of upstate NY. The YMCA is nice an toasty warm! |
