I'm really happy with sustaining 30 minutes a day, and it's looking like I'll be able to start biking more places thanks to climate change (no snow in February is freaking me out) but at least I can get some outside activity in before the wildfire smoke season starts up!

Sorry about the doomer vibe in this post but c'est la vie if you'll pardon my French

think i may need to start pestering local politicians about how wildfire prepped we actually are

I would try that here but they've made it very clear that's not what they're about. Maybe if I were a forestry or mining company they might listen

Damn every day without a break. I do 6 days a week and that one day off is a blessing

I'm not doing the most intensive workouts at 20ish strokes a minute but I'm working more on building stamina/a routine at the moment. I'm going to add some cycling places in the mix once I'm sure it's not super icy and I can minimize the risk of being run over by an f350 with a "Please be Patient, New Driver" bumper sticker
