First brick of the season! Bike trainer for about 35 minutes, with the HR above 150 bpm for most of it. The bike trainer tension would not stay tight, so I had to tighten it twice. It was a very boring ride, in the basement starring at the wall. I'll have to put on a movie next time so the time.
Then, I went for a 5k run in the snow right after the bike. With about 2" of snow on the sidewalks, I was on the street facing traffic. This seemed to freak drivers out, but the run wasn't bad. It was snowing and hitting me in the eyes, which drove me crazy. I'll have to go longer/harder on the bike next time to make sure I get the benefits of doing the "brick". I ran the 5k in 31:25, though I walked a little as I thought I was about to puke (for the first time ever during a run). I've been stretching my hamstrings as my wife says my aero position on the bike looks more like a C than a flat back.
I'm going skiing all day tomorrow with a buddy. Should be fun. The last time I went I had very sore legs for days, so I'm glad I got in a run today before I have to rest.
