Dion’s Exercise and …

Got back out on the rollerblades now I’m back in Melbourne. Even managed to get out of bed and get out there. Was hard work starting off up the slight hill from home, but after the first lap I pretty much settled into a grove and stuck it out for 5 laps. The pedometer function in the phone counted 4023 steps, I guess I’ll have to try and count them to see if it’s right one day ! Here’s the link to SportsTracker so you can get dizzy watching the loops !

With the boys out staying at their Grandma’s I got out for a skate in the light. Sure makes those tree root lumps less surprising then in the dark ! Sure was hard work …

I used the downhill bits to work on short radius turns powering off the apex which is a great quad workout. The rest was trying to keep a nice smooth skating style going which is way easier on the flat then up the little hills.

All in all a good session, must try to keep these up twice a week before I’m skiing in a month or so.

No not running, inline skating ! 5 laps around the park, still need to check the distance around so the speed may change, not the effort though !
