new cleat set

Posted on January 10, 2008 | Comments Off

My cleats were worn after 7 years of use. I use them every day and relatively do a lot of walking. The cleats make easy contact with the ground because the rubber sole of my Shimano shoes is not thick enough to prevent it.

I am still alive

Posted on January 10, 2008 | Comments Off

I get a medical check-up every year now, because I am a sort of volunteer to use a gas mask (like the fire department uses in case of heavy smoke) at my work in case of unforeseen circumstance. The last medical test was a year ago.

The test showed that my VO2max has risen from 46,23 to 49,25 ml/kg/min. Probably because I continued to commute by bicycle this winter, my condition was better during the test. Normally the VO2max decreases with age.
