Dion’s Exercise and …

Another great swim, a bit slower then last week, all of .5 sec so I’d better try a bit harder next time !

Hard to get out of bed, but we made it. Not too cool so we wandered around at a bit of a slow place but we made it home …

Did some shopping on the way home, nothing exciting just bread, milk, etc. Forgot to pause the GPS though so I’ve knocked off 18 minutes that it showed me being stopped. Next time I’ll remember, or not !

Usual routine, nice core work out, so I was a bit worn out by the time I rode home.

Just a short spin through the city to go to Pilates. Stopped for a coffee with Bron and then headed off to Pilates.

Apple did replace my battery so I should be back to nice long off power usage, and no instant shutdowns ! The funniest thing was the button on my trackpad had stopped working and I was busy blaming the kids and thinking I’d have to get it fixed when I discovered the bulging battery and after pulling that out ( and putting it outside to cool down !) it started working again. They sure do jam everything in pretty tight in there. I’m planning a hard drive upgrade soon, so that will be fun I figure.

Anyway, back to the main topic, my ride ! Same route as with Bronwen the other day, you can check it out on Sportstracker here but a little faster.

Rhys came over after work, so we headed out for a walk. Got a bit side tracked before we left looking up Satellite Internet providers for him at home so we were a bit late going then we intended to. Noticed that the Sportstracker software has a Energy field so I’ll stick in the value from that, no idea how it measures it, maybe from the pedometer, I guess ??

Nothing like a swim in an outdoor pool in winter, no fighting for space, a whole double lane all to myself. Pity, it’s not always like that. Had a good swim, was feeling very unmotivated but got in the water and felt really good. ot sure, if it’s a fast time, for me, but it felt great.

Just a casual ride with Bronwen up to the shops at Moonee Ponds, mostly off road on a cycle track. Had to drop off my Macbook Pro battery at the Apple shop as it had started to bulge ! Was also doing instant shutdowns after about 30 - 45 minutes off the charger. I’d already bought a new battery in the States for my sister to bring out when I noticed the bulging so I’ll probably get a freebie from apple and now have two batteries. Will have to decide if I want a spare or will just put it up on eBay and make a small profit. If you’re in Australia and you need a Macbook Pro 17″ battery, let me know !
