Saturday 21 februari 2009 8,9km 00:47:55 -1°C. HR 142/164. Easy trot through my neighborhood. I use an e61 (no camera) so I brought along my Canon PowerShot S40, c.2001. Weather was wonderful with lots of folk out and about. The city is reporting an ice thickness on Jarlasjön of 25-30cm today.

Friday 20 februari 2009 14km 01:08:08 -4°C, clear and calm. HR 151/171. Planned 10km but decided to make up for Tuesday’s missed workout a bit. Also, today was supposed to be slow and easy but I pushed up the tempo. Weight is down to 71kg with a race-day target of 67kg in sight.

Thursday 19 februari 2009 16km 1:26:00 -3°C, overcast. Partly icy route. HR 144/181. Go figure, I couldn’t get HR >176 on last night’s hills but hit 181 on Nacka Strand’s stairs today. Cold got to me today, doesn’t usually. Good route but plenty of elevation gain/loss.

*Supplement* 18 februari 2009 Win a Nokia N79 contest, day two, second attempt. Biked 39,5km over four hours for the effort. Success! My second attempt yielded an acceptable result for the contest. The details of the workout aren’t properly reflected in the data because I frequently paused the Sports Tracker application for a better final graphic. My technique involves visiting pre-planned waypoints while strategically pausing and resuming the tracker application. Though I’m pleased with the resulting design, not every waypoint I visited was successfully recorded. The planned heart was to be smoother. Missed waypoint recordings made the outline more jagged. This is what failed my first attempt. What do you think?

Wednesday 11,5km 54:00 -5°C, clear and calm. HR 150/176. Route was dry. Hill work tonight; 7x 500m 0-40m. Remainder warm/cool. Couldn’t get the HR higher than 176? Legs maxed out on laps 5-7. Anomaly on route tracking was caused by satellite blockage when I entered a tunnel.

Tuesday 17 februari 2009 Unscheduled day off. Worked on my entry to a contest by Nokia for a chance to win a Nokia N79 Active. The contest asks participants to draw a heart shape on a workout using the GPS tracking service Nokia Sports Tracker. Today’s attempt failed so I’ll try again tomorrow. Biked 39, 5km for my efforts over 4,5 hours.
Monday 16 februari 2009 Scheduled day off. My first day off since December 31.
