Had a lousy day at the gig, but a GREAT time finishing the tree decorations with the family afterwards.
Once we got done, I headed to the UNC Wellness center to hit the weights for a little bit and then cruise up to campus for an interval/speed work run. Trails are soaked, and the weather is poor so....
I lowered my basal rate at 19:30 to a 45% reduction. With the shorter and more intense level of this workout I should see a BG rise, but wanted to reduce just to be sure. Was at the Wellness Center by 20:10. Had a quick chat with my friend Cassie about getting on a bike (no pressure - LOL), and then got to work at 80:25.
It took only about 20ish minutes to go through a supersetted lower body workout. Funny how after only a few consistent days of weight training, the body is starting to respond. I was able to add some poundage on each move, and it felt great!
Once done I hopped over to UNC Campus. Took 5 minutes to pack some "emergency funds" (M&Ms) and get my cold weather stuff on.
Ran easy over to my destination and training partner for the next 25 minutes:
A nice concrete 8 story stairway outside Kenan stadium. No real plan..
Sprint up, jog down. Repeat. Wait for 25 minutes to pass. I am getting old, although my ancient history track coach Mr. Mashur would have been proud. (Actually, he would have wanted me carrying a 45lb plate while I did it). :)

Once done.. cruised back to the car and set my basal rate back to a standard rate. Tested, and the BG was rolling a little high at a 192. I knew it would float, and next week I will not drop the basal rate as far pre-workout.
Bolused, and set a 90 min temp basal rate of 125% to correct.
Great fun actually, but man.... my legs feel like goo. :)
