I would listen to you, bu...ah, the voice of reason. I would listen to you, but I can't; all I can hear is the rushing of blood in my ears as my blood pressure skyrockets, heart rate goes through the roof, arms and fingers getting tingly, blacking out from hypoxia, uh-oh!<br /><br />Seriously, though - point taken. The 172 burst was only for about 20 seconds at the end of the run. I'm keeping my bike training at around 130-140 and the running to < 160. The workouts are helping in lots of ways (GI happiness, appetite, sleep pattersn, cardio-pulmonary recovery) - just got to keep it in perspective. Something I struggle with as you well know :)George Florentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454081099512727227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3179493995370177232.post-16536088621927289542011-04-21T17:39:16.280-06:002011-04-21T17:39:16.280-06:00Outstanding!

I am thinking that you can wait a few months to steepen your curve on fitness?

I'm glad you'll have your blog to look back on, as you've gone through this journey in a way that I highly admire, that inspires me, and wrings out way more smiles and laughs than a cancer blog should (but really this is a life blog with the cancer as a foreign irritant that you've wrapped a pearl of a life around)... what's next??? oh right, driving... yikes!! Hopefully you'll go a little lighter on the accelerator pedal than you have on the other parts of your recovery. <br /><br />Eric (via Kari)EMRobbinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01627904140129662167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3179493995370177232.post-33718630926304955382011-04-20T15:58:16.817-06:002011-04-20T15:58:16.817-06:00Awesome!
