Elliptical Machine: 1hour 12minutes (8mi @ 8:55) | ||||
| Weight: 188 | Time: 6:00am | Temp: 5f | Weather: Light Snow | Route: Elliptical Machine |
| Notes: I have never used a elliptical machine for more than a few seconds, I have always found the motion odd, so have avoided them. However today there was 6 inches of snow on all the roads, and I was 7000 feet up the Colorado mountains. So I decided that It would be worth giving a try. Since this machine did not have a Pace, and the speed feedback seamed to be based on some very strange combination of resistance and leg turnover, I could not really tell how I was doing. I settled for watching my heart rate. I managed to keep it at between 120 and 135 for the majority of the time. I'm looking forward to getting back on the treadmill Sunday. And hoping to avoid Elliptical Machines in the future. | ||||
